Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Oregon) said Friday he would demand answers from the
Department of Homeland Security about its domain seizure program known as
Operation in Our Sites after it was revealed that the government kept a
hip-hop music review site’s name for a year without affording the owner a
chance to challenge the seizure.

Wyden also wants to know why there was no court record of the case, other
than the initial seizure filing a year ago.
