From the discussion
A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.
None of this would work if Google Adsense didn't allow scam ads on their system. But they do, millions every day (I deal with this every day on my websites, Google don't care). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racketeer_Influenced_and_Corru...
A total of 404 fake domains impersonating a single restaurant brand site! The scale is mind-boggling. The number 404 is poetic. Any possible (mis) spelling of the brand will open the "intended" site - you will never see a 404 :D. Auto-correct on steroids indeed. And I imagine this sort of thing must be happening…
Couldn't the original website owner just look at the logs and see where most of the requests are coming from? And also the referrers would be a dead giveaway, right? That's assuming someone is looking at the `access.log` file occasionally.
