===WebLock Service===
In January, 2014 Network Solutions' marketing department sent an email to customers stating that the company would be automatically enrolling customers in a new security program called WebLock, for an initial charge of $1,850 for the first year and $1,350 each subsequent year. The company claimed the cost offset new security features to protect domains, including registering as a "certified user" and confirmation of configuration changes with those "certified users".<ref name="OptIn">{{Citation

<blockquote>... To help recapture the costs of maintaining this extra level of security for your account, your credit card will be billed $1,850 for the first year of service on the date your program goes live... After that you will be billed $1,350 on every subsequent year from that date. If you wish to opt out of this program you may do so by calling us at 1-888-642-0265.</blockquote>

Web.com COO Jason Teichman later clarified that the program would actually be opt-in, saying "we did not do a good job in wording that [email]" and "It's not our intention to enroll anyone in a program they don't want."<ref name="OptOut">{{cite web|url= http://domainnamewire.com/2014/01/22/web-com-weblock-program-will-be-opt-in-not-opt-out/|title=Web.com: WebLock program will be opt-in, not opt-out|publisher=Domain Name Wire|first=Andrew|last=Allemann|date=January 22, 2014|access-date=January 31, 2014}}</ref>
