The end of the article raised a good point though: this is going to train people to click on links in emails that look like they came from their registrar. That's bad. The registrar is public information. The registrant's contact information is public (or at least publicly accessible). So, wait a year for people to get accustomed to clicking on links in emails from their registrar, pick a target domain, forge an email from the registrar, send it to owner contact with a link to a phishing page. Congratulations, enjoy your new domain.
