Hmm it expires soon. Keep an eye on that ;)

Seems like the least we can do is use it. I propose we use this by default for links to bing.

They'd be dumb not to. They also own bingsucks.com, and probably a couple hundred other variations.

Standard operating procedure for a lot of companies, corporations should own all of the obvious typos of their name and the obvious hate sites too. It costs little if you get them early.

Google owns googlesucks.com and several others, they're just protecting their brand.

They're using MarkMonitor; it's basically MarkMonitor's value proposition to do stuff like this.

What's the benefit of registering a hate domain?

Someone goes to Bing.com to search, doesn't like it, and then goes to Fuckbing.com to read up on all the Bing hate?
