The problem aren't really rules so much as a lack of substance in the industry. Even in this case where the author takes a stand and says to "just say no" the top right menu says "domains for sale". Even if you don't consider the domain industry itself shitty there's a huge overlap between that industry and things that are ethically questionable online.

Isn't that a bit of a chicken and egg problem there? The way I see it, the system won't change if those who want change are waiting for the system to change first.
