It's already been said, but this whole debacle is ridiculous. The fact that a judge was even willing to give Microsoft (a third-party organization) control over another company's property without that company being allowed to know what's happening is horrifying.

Is there any possible recourse against the judge for the damages caused to No-ip's business? This seems like an incredible violation of their rights, and generally a bogus and abusive use of the legal system.

Judge was misled by MS; they implied No-IP were witting participants in malware distribution, which MS have now admitted was not true.

I'm surprised they accepted a settlement. 8 digits?
