This is an appalling unilateral abuse of VeriSign's power.
Forget about the negative consequences. They are simply abusing their control over these TLDs to direct users who make typos to their site.
Anyone know appropriate VeriSign, ICANN, or other e-mail addresses that we can express our dissatisfaction to?

Has a contact form for Verisign.
I'm sure ICANN has already gotten an earful. I, for one, and going to leave ICANN alone so that they can concentrate on a course of action against Verisign.
On a side note, the tactic appears to have backfired... 64.94.110.11 appears to be unpingable, and If I try typing a "made-up" domain into a browser, the page times out. Perhaps Verisign is suffering the /. effect?
