What a pinko move.
Malcolm Burrows, who specialises in IT and intellectual property law at Dundas Lawyers, explains that Cybersquatting is the practice of registering or using a domain name in bad faith, usually with the aim of profiting from someone else’s trademark.
The registration of domain names in the .com.au namespace is governed by the .au Domain Administration Limited (auDA) Rules.
"An aggrieved party could seek to have the registration transferred away from the new registrant by lodging a dispute with the Word Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). One of the grounds upon which that the aggrieved party is able to rely is that the registrant registered the domain name in bad faith."
So nothing will be done, we the people will have to knock on some pinko's doors.
