Domain Tasting, Domain Sniffing, and Front Running – what are the definitions and differences of these?

Talk about data source, Verisign flagrantly offers:

Internet Profile Service for Registrars / Domain Name Intelligence for Domain Names and Renewals

With Verisign’s BTAPPA request for dot com and dot net recently passed under everyone’s noses, Registrars will soon be speculating in our domain names – see my rant on my homepage!

The tasting has just shifted who the players are-In this case, registrars…some of the loudest critics of tasting (GoDaddy) Just as slimy in my opinion. I have long held that the auction houses NameJet, TDNam and others that auction off expiring but undeleted domains are tasting names they do not own or not going to renew. They are just using loopholes ICANN provided to ensure that the true owner doesn’t lose a name to to sell something they do not own and simply let drop if noone buys it. How is that not the same thing as tasting? Spare me the technicalities!
