Why it shouldn't be allowed is it lets people sit on domains and not use them for an indefinite period of time. Being able to sit on it for a short period of time seems reasonable but for years and years to sit on a domain and not use it seems like it hurts the industry.
Additionally as you pointed out by linking my previous post, I find it very questionable that the same company that charges people to hide their domain (and host them), can then also charge people to backdoor communicate with those same sellers. This seems like a shady business practice.
- detaro 11y agoWhat does people owning domains and not using them for a long time have to do with them hiding who they are? What would you gain from knowing who they are? If you are in a position where you can force them to release the domain (e.g. because of trademarks) you can be quite sure that the registrar will either reveal the client or hand over the domain. I didn't comment on the other point because I don't know enough about how both involved offers look like exactly.
