[Qezdabo]

I think there should be a law protecting personal names just like trademarks. like obviously the guy who regged EmeliSande knew what he's doing, and wanted to take advantage. (EmeliSande is a singer in uk, that started to climb her singing career in 2010... same year as the domain was handreg)

I believe investing in domains where people don't steal trademarks, or personal names, or knowing that a specific organization/company needed that exact brandable name and you take advantage of that.

like smartlemon.com is a generic domain, dictionary words. basic supply and demand will work here. and people will buy it.

but targeting a specific organization like the non-profit the other day, and now a personal name. is just wrong imo.
