Ask HN: Are domain name companies selling queries to front runners?
2 by wideareanetwork | 1 comments on Hacker News.
I don’t have hard evidence but I suspect a domain I searched for was registered pretty quick, but not by the company I searched at, by another company. I wondered if maybe the domain name companies sell the history of user queries to front running companies who then decide which domains to front run. Anyone got any idea of this is actually happening?
