Others do it if you don't use the domain at all, but not when you use the domain.
This way, if a user happens to type "ww.yourdomain.com" instead of "www.yourname.com" they end up on a netsol advertising page instead of your site.
THAT is extremely unethical.

(In normal cases the browser would show a page saying that you may have mistyped the domain name, and check your spelling... now they think that they're on your site, and this is how it looks.)
