Anyway, I would suggest that all RSP's do the same. > > Here is the link to the page that users see: > > http://www.mia.net/domains/domainregamer/ I can understand the motivation, but are you certain it's legal to simply replace a DNS entry and point it to a page of your own choosing? I'm not a lawyer, but in my opinion that'll expose you to some potential liability. For example, if AOL had a beef with Amazon.com, they couldn't just redirect all the amazon.com DNS to a page, with a link to Barnes and Noble on it, too. It might be legitimate to "black hole" them, i.e. make a null-entry for that domain, so it doesn't resolve, but putting in alternative info doesn't seem appropriate, to me. Of course, everyone should get their own independent legal advice (I'm against what DRoC did too, but my clients were unaffected, as they phoned me up and asked about things; I have personal telephone contact with all of my clients, which the higher volume RSPs probably can't do, though).
