I feel sorry for all .com.au domain owners. This policy is definitely open for vultures to take advantage of.
Then again, there must be a certain body to protect domain owners from such absurdity. Even for cases such as a generic or made-up word .coms.
There is also a big problem for domainers when trademark holders wield their power and files infringement lawsuits on domains that don't even come close to their trademarks. Well, this kinds of lawsuits will cost tens of thousands of dollars, just to have a counsel appear in court to defend the case. If the case is not defended, then there will be a default judgement and the court will automatically yank the alleged infringing domain to give it to the complainant!
Even after spending tons of money fighting the case and if you won, you will just earn the right to keep the domains. You cannot claim any legal fees from the other party, so most domainers will just give up their domains if it is valued only at a few thousand dollars.
I think this practice is called "reverse hijacking" and you will never know how painful it is until your are faced with one. Trust me, I have been through this!
