John Stanton says
Hardly a worthwhile strategy. MarkMonitor will do everything possible to take money from their clients.
Grim says
If a company is afraid that some people might say they “suck,” it should either not be in business, or it should try harder to keep its customers happy. Registering domains like this is based on either reality or paranoia. Either improve the reality, or see a therapist.
