I see a lot of comments in this thread along the lines of "oh I'm kicking myself for not doing that." I actually thought that squatting on a domain name was a pretty scummy move. I saw it coming, I had some money, but I elected to not do so because I think that it's simply wrong, in quite the same way that I think some simple-idea software patents are wrong.
- TallboyOne 14y agoSorry, but for xx million dollars, you can call me scummy for doing something that is 1/10 on the scum scale. Now if were talking about stealing or installing malware, keyloggers or extreme forms of spam that may be another story, but come on. This isnt' a disney movie, and if it makes you a huge amount of money to do something completely legal albeit it 'annoying' for the other person who wasn't quick enough, I'd say do it.
- dhimes 14y agoI would agree if you were creating value, but you are not. You are causing pain, and then offering to make the pain go away. That's just not my style.
