You don't even have to imagine that.
Imagine a long-term port 80 Denial of Service (DoS) attack against a
given website (using the website url rather than IP, which is not

Imagine the attacked domain administrator removes their DNS records
from the registry to alleviate the attack.
The attack is now directed at the Versign Sitefinder service.
