This is not a Guide to show you how to find good domain names and avoid bad ones.
These are Domain names which you should really NEVER EVER buy or register unless you really like legal actions against you and problems.
Those people are either new in domain name business and simply not aware of how dangerous such behaviour can be, or they simply don't care as they have no principles and/or are living in countries where they are no strict rules and laws. But even in such cases, violated companies/persons can take those names away from them by filing a complaint (Google for UDRP) and/or by lawsuits.
Keep your domain name portfolio clean and avoid such names.
