Hello Everyone........

I found this blog post about, domain data mining that is going on. I only use enom for domain searches, and do all my domain research on google so I'm safe there. But I do type address into my browser bar, but will no longer be doing that anymore. Funny how the richer get richer off the backs, of the poorer domainers work.

And here is another about cnets searches, and a place the reggs the domains to test them that search for.

I'll be sure to check out out then, I find it odd that they would go to such trouble to mine such data. But I guess so people just feel money is money, and if you use their site it's ok to mine that data.

While the issue has been hashed and rehashed without resolution, it's real, systematic and involves big money. And it likely won't end unless criminalized or domain tasting is abolished. Either would be fine by me. In the interim, if you find a good name, register immediately.
