Whitney Houston's daughter's domain

[Theo]

Just got squatted upon - the day Whitney passed away! :-(

I'm sure most of those squatters are going to have the NS auto redirected to ns1.karma.com / ns2.karma.com :yo:

I saw couple of celebrity names recently on DNF. I thought selling celebrity names were against the rules.

In the meantime, Sony quietly jacked up the price on Whitney Houston albums on iTunes.
Must be the law of supply and demand in action

They did reverse it on the same day after a public backlash. I read about this on the day her death was reported.

Hi All,
I am new to Domaining.
Is there a code of conduct. Good practice guide to domaining?

Any do's and Don'ts on trading semi famous (alive peoples) names?

Tips are all over the forum. Use the search to find it.

Main tips:
1. Don't register obvious TM domains
2. Don't register Celebrity domains - including the ones that are dead.

The general rule is to just not be a d-bag.

Most people know when they are in a grey area. Avoid the grey, legal or not, and bask in the light where everything is clear. You will feel much better about yourself and so will others. Most of us have delved into this grey area a time or two before with visions of wealth and traffic and it never pans out. Save yourself some headaches and don't. Cheers and good luck.
