what makes it unethical?

what kind of shit is that?

so instead of taking you to a forum where you can bullshit with your buddies it goes instead to a sportsbook where it makes you sign up and it makes you deposit and it makes you place losing plays

WTF does gambling forums and online sportsbooks have to do with one another in forms of taking away potential business from one another? how is it unethical? is he taking traffic away from the RX?

Anyone wanting to argue the ethics of such business practices should read the referenced WIPO decisions, as well as the ICANN policies on "bad faith" use of other's registered marks.

This is not really a matter of opinion, IMO

excerpts from:
Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy
(As Approved by ICANN on October 24, 1999)

4. Mandatory Administrative Proceeding.
This Paragraph sets forth the type of disputes for which you are required to submit to a mandatory administrative proceeding.

a. Applicable Disputes. You are required to submit to a mandatory administrative proceeding in the event that a third party (a "complainant") asserts to the applicable Provider, in compliance with the Rules of Procedure, that

(i) your domain name is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which the complainant has rights; and

(ii) you have no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain name; and

(iii) your domain name has been registered and is being used in bad faith.

In the administrative proceeding, the complainant must prove that each of these three elements are present.

b. Evidence of Registration and Use in Bad Faith. For the purposes of Paragraph 4(a)(iii), the following circumstances, in particular but without limitation, if found by the Panel to be present, shall be evidence of the registration and use of a domain name in bad faith:

(iv) by using the domain name, you have intentionally attempted to attract, for commercial gain, Internet users to your web site or other on-line location, by creating a likelihood of confusion with the complainant's mark as to the source, sponsorship, affiliation, or endorsement of your web site or location or of a product or service on your web site or location.

that is a pretty lame tactic. I would never sign up with a book that i was directed to erroneously. they must really be targeting serious idiots.
