domains Bitcoin.Com.Au - Deleted Over WhoIs information

[DomainVP]

As seen on: http://qntra.net/2014/11/digital-btc-lose-bitcoin-com-au-by-mistake/

Shady dealings indeed...

Essentially the domain was deleted from the registry due to the fact that the WhoIs information was never updated.

This is not the first time this has happened, and it's a strategy that other buyers use to snatch domains from owners.

Pretty horrendous in my opinion.

Question: Does this increase the value of .COM.AU because of how strict heir policies are, or does it devalue the namespace because of how easy it is to lose a domain.

I think it makes the namespace a bit shaky, in addition to easy confusion with .COM.

Thoughts?

I didn't even realize that .com.au existed until last week. Not every business is a big business, but why limit yourself unnecessarily by using this ccTLD? I don't get it.
