I Hate Domain Squatters

dcolumbus and I just spent the ENTIRE day trying to narrow down a domain name for our newest project. Sadly this would have been done in the first 20 minutes of brainstorming if it weren’t for domain squatters having bought up every last domain ever. This of course was amplified by the fact that we arbitrarily decided on a .com TLD and not a .org or .net

Something has to be done about this problem. Domain squatting should be made illegal. It is not cool and is the lowest form of internet business.

    Yeah its rediculous imo its worse than the people who send out spam atleast you can easily stop them. It takes so long to find a good domain nowadays and as soon as you let a domain expire its snatched up by these scum who call themselves businesses. They are the con artists of the internet.

    Yeah we were met with squatter ad sites even when we threw in dashes and other words like “a” or “the”.

  1. No trackbacks yet.
