The situation with Frank and .com is completely different. Yes, Frank sold the site to NTL, but I think he was genuinely convinced by what they had told him: that it was going to be transformed into something which could be of even more help to the users (and to a certain extent, it has done so).

What Matty did was to register a domain deliberately similar to a site NTL wanted to launch. If NTL announced that they were going to launch a mobile phone service, would it be okay for me to instantly go out and register ntlmobile.com? Of course not.
