Die elektronische Infrastruktur von Scientology

Scientology hat in den vergangenen Monaten massiv versucht, die elektronische Kommunikation unter seine Kontrolle zu bringen und Kritiker weltweit mundtot zu machen. Das ist diesem Kult bislang nicht gelungen. Im Gegenteil! Durch die massiven Aktionen hat Scientology den Vorhang fallen lassen: Es wurden die technischen Möglichkeiten dieses faschistoiden Kultes vor aller Welt offenbar. Hier nun die Domain-Addressen von wichtigen Internet-Domains, die Scientology gehören oder von ihr kontrolliert werden.

4/15/95:  Removed tlg.net.  Added able.org, applied-scolastics.org,
   executive.com, flourish.com, prosper.com.  There is a clam.com,
   but not Scientology-related :-).

I did a little bit of looking into Scientology's registered domain
names on the Internet, and the administrative contacts for each of
them.  The only domains which actually appears to be in use are
scientology.org and executive.com.  The others are neither
traceroutable nor seem to have any address or MX (mail exchange)
records on their primary domain server.  It looks like EarthLink
simply registered the domains for future use.  It would be interesting
to know whether these organizations paid EarthLink the $75 per domain
name registration that EarthLink charges its other customers.

This is apparently a Scientologist-owned business, not to be confused
with a Scientology-owned business.

It is odd that the administrative contact's domain (expansion.com)
contains InterNIC data which says that it is Earthlink Network, Inc.,
