IIUC it's not the model of buying domains from registrars which stinks of crap, it's the buying from registrars by domain squatters who then flip them for a profit having provided zero value that bears a whiff of shite. These ticket scalpers of the internet who contribute nothing can well and truly fuck straight off.
Speculators provide time-allocation of resources. They're pretty critical part of market dynamics to help resources get sold and developed when they are valued most. That is, they prevent domains from being captured prematurely for lower value use. Society profits immensely from their contribution.
Hey I get it, we all gotta sleep at night. Tell yourself whatever you like to get them zzz's. As far as ticket scalpers and domain resellers go, my assessment stands: they are bottom feeding zeros providing nothing of value and they can fuck off into the sun.
The tragedy of the commons is real. I have no good idea how to solve it, but I know that you are the problem. Your domain squatting ad bullshit adds zero value to society, but it does a lot of harm. It is increasingly hard to find good information between all the spam and the energy cost is immense. Your greed to the detriment of everybody else.
Public ridicule, denunciation and mobbing works somewhat, better in countries with more societal coherence then the US, not that I'm a big fan of that, quite the opposite. In your case though, I think you shouldn't get any positive attention for anything you say besides "sorry what I did, let me help undo the harm".
Wait people are upset, do the Friendster founders want their URL back?!
Maybe I glossed over something

I don't need to be able to cure cancer to tell you that cancer is terrible.
You don’t need to propose a better model of the world to despise the dirtbags profiting from legal but icky shit in this world.

We must have read a different article because I read a neat one about how someone bought a domain no one was using.
It’s just an externality of online advertising
