Cameroon whole country earns on tayposkvottinge

The operators of the national domain zone .cm (Cameroon) have found that the suffix .cm is only one letter different from the popular domain .com, and this can be easily used to attract additional traffic. To date, the entire domain zone of Cameroon has turned into one big "parking" . If you type the name of any non-existent domain with the suffix .cm, then a special “parking page” with ads will be loaded. Redirection to this page is carried out through the official record in the DNS.

Apparently, this is the most massive case of tayposkvottinga in the history of the Internet, except for a similar situation with the company Verisign. She also slipped a similar page with an advertisement if the user typed in the wrong URL. But in the case of the .cm national domain zone, ICANN has far less authority to remedy the situation.
