Not sure if this is still true but in the early 2010s I documented several scenarios where searching for a domain on network solutions (but not purchasing) resulted in it getting automatically purchased and parked with network solutions, with a list price of $500.
- Mattasher 5y agoFront-running domains was a huge issue with registrars. Not sure sure if it still is. Registries were allowed a grace period to hold names without paying the ICANN fee, if they later released them, the idea being they might have been bought with a bad credit card etc so the registry would just let them go. No harm no foul, right?
