I think that’s how a lot of the internet is dying right now because buying an IP then wringing every drop of value out of its dying corpse before dropping it is a good way to make money right now. This is very much a thing that happens outside of the internet too, and happened long before the internet existed. I think one of the cool things about the internet is how quickly word can spread about this kind of compromised company / product / whatever thing, though I think we need to get better at it. I’m not exactly sure how to accomplish that, it seems like an overwhelming problem, but I think about it a lot.
