Comment on How Wedgies.com Sidestepped a Domain Squatting Felon to buy their dotcom

Comments

Is what we did terrible?

If you got the DNS turned off on one of my domains for no good reason, I'd be more than a little angry - at you and at my host.

Agreed. However, the domain pointed to basically a landing page that said "I want to sell this domain, contact me"

Who puts up a "Please contact me" page without any way of contacting themselves?

Although this does somewhat excuse the smoke-out; although, couldn't the host simply have contacted the person themselves?
