If your livelihood is based on squatting domains you bought in 1992, you won't find me crying tears of sorrow for your loss when you only make a couple million dollars instead of whatever number you think you're owed for adding zero productive value to the world. Scratch that; domain "investing" actually removes productive value from the world. Someone else might own that domain and actually do something incredible with it. Microsoft clearly could have; they use it all over their documentation (and they're idiots for doing so, but what's done is done). |

Does it? These domains are available for those who want them at fair prices. Why is the current situation any worse than one in which these domains would be snapped up for low effort personal sites?

Why? What would be an example of "something incredible" that'd require a very specific domain name like this?
