For my own learning, how could a domain grabber know you typed in a domain in your browser that wasn't registered and then grab it? How would you know this had happened, and wasn't just a coincidence. – Matthew Lock Feb 1 at 5:00

@Matthew, it's not a coincidence. It's called "domain name tasting"; en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_tasting. Companies form agreements with registrars to automatically register any domain accessed that is not already registered."
