According to AllNovaScotia, when Meta and Palikaras came to a parting of the ways, Palikaras kept control of the website and email and the like. And the account with their ISP, TierraNet, expired on 18 July. Meta then contacted TierraNet and paid the fee. Services were restored.
Alas, it was not over. On July 23, the site went down again. According to Meta's attorneys, Palikaras had called TierraNet and explained that he had "personal ownership" of the site. TierraNet refunded Meta's payment and shut down the site again. The company sent cease-and-desist letters. TierraNet agreed to turn the site on again for 10 days. Those 10 days expire on 8 August.
Palikaras has been hinting that he might be willing to extend that deadline, but apparently only if the company makes some changes to it...
Stay tuned!
