#3This reminds me a lot of the no-ip.com case. Did anyone ever find out how that was resolved? Apparently Microsoft gave back the domains[1], but did they face any payments for damages or censure?

Out of court settlement. Microsoft and No-ip both issued press releases/updates to their original blog posts about it.
No details about the settlement were released but No-IP certainly got paid.

#5I'll be following this case. I don't understand why this would be filed under seal. I'd enjoy some legal experts comments on the matter.

#6Better to submit the original article, per HN guidelines. There's a lot of useful info in the comments: http://www.thedomains.com/2014/10/02/as-many-as-5k-coms-take...

Yes the comments of the original blog post have been really interesting to read.
The domain name community looks to be all over the comment section of the original post.

#8That situation is just about as maddening as that site's scroll behaviour.

#9While this is obviously a perversion of justice, I'm not shedding many tears over shady domain landgrabbers losing their 'property'. It's unfortunate (and clearly shouldn't have been filed under seal) but the histrionic comments on anigbrowl's link about how this is going to kill the domain squatting 'business' just make me think "good."

Careful - you're dangerously close to allowing the end to justify the means there.
