Its not like the domains will go away and it can also be traced to whom stolen them in the first place?
Well i think its the same as go into a 7-eleven with 45 cameras and first place your ID and face up to the cams for 5 seconds and then put an skimask over the head and rob the place :D

the thing is, they first steal these domains, place them in a godaddy account, then sell them. all in a matter of 2-3 days. most of these cocksuckers are in foreign countries like russia, ukraine, india, etc and they request to have the money sent via western union, which cannot be tracked.
it will take several months to get the domain back from godaddy in most situations, especially if the owner didn't notice that it was stolen right away. the guy who stole it can have the domain sold in 3 days to an unsuspecting buyer. so, the guy who bought the domains is the one who gets fucked, unless the original owner doesn't realize they were stolen.
7g.com, and a bunch of other domains were just sold on ebay for $x,xxx. all hijacked. it took a lot of detective work before people caught on.
it's stupid, but these cocksuckers will do anything for a few bucks.
