Wait, so if you own Johnson.name you and use John.Johnson.name as your web address, that will stop working?
I don't think so. If you own it, you can have any subdomain.
At least I hope this is the case. I have a memorial page for my uncle under hisfirstname.ourlastname.name
No this is people who have registered john.johnson.name, but johnson.name remains Verisign's (and e.g. unrelated Alice has also registered alice.johnson.name)
