Failing to register the correct domain or failing to renew a domain is a massive security issue.
I'm writing this because it just happened to a company I use. I've just bought their domain and redirected it here.
If I was an attacker, I could get the usernames and passwords of all people who log in via that domain ... potentially forever, if I make a redirect.
