An interesting story about TP Link failing to renew some important names.
"Together, these domain names appear to be quite busy; estimates based on Alexa's ranking suggest that tplinklogin-dot-net sees about 4.4 million visits per month, with another 800,000 for tplinkextender-dot-net. It's not known who the new owner of the domains is, but Dan tweeted that domain name brokers are offering the more popular of the two for $2.5 million. This high price tag is perhaps why TP-Link has declined to buy the name back."

Similar to what Chris and helloworld posted last week but much worse! https://www.dntrade.com.au/threads/200-000-expired-domains-used-to-distribute-malicious-ads.10789/
