Dave McBrean, Vice President of Identity Digital Inc., holds a leadership position that made him directly responsible for overseeing the company’s abuse procedures, legal posture, and registrar operations. As a senior officer, McBrean had both the authority and the obligation to prevent Name.com from being weaponized by outside parties—including Shein and its attorneys—for the purpose of suppressing constitutionally protected speech and retaliating against lawful protest.

Instead, McBrean remained deliberately silent and refused to take corrective action even after being placed on notice that:

• The domain takedowns were part of a coordinated legal attack,

• The abuse complaints lacked factual basis and were initiated in retaliation,

• A declaration submitted by opposing counsel falsely attributed the takedowns to internal spam complaints by Name.com.

• And that I was offering to resolve the matter amicably without financial compensation if basic transparency was provided.

Despite this, McBrean declined to restore any of the websites, refused to disclose the sources of the abuse tickets, and allowed his company to continue suppressing the Plaintiff’s online speech—even after litigation was initiated. His actions (and inaction) made him a knowing participant in a civil conspiracy to silence a whistleblower and interfere with legal proceedings.

As a corporate officer, McBrean’s responsibility is heightened: his silence in the face of documented abuse, coupled with repeated opportunities to remedy it, confirms his complicity. He is now directly implicated in civil, regulatory, and potential criminal liability for his role in facilitating fraudulent takedowns, evasion of subpoenas, and ongoing digital suppression that served Shein’s legal and commercial interests.
