After encountering some stolen domains, Andrew asks “Do we need title insurance for Domain Names?” A central database to report stolen domains does not appear to be a bad idea either, but title insurance does indeed sound like something that DomainTools.com could be offering in conjunction with some registrars etc. They would have to assign risk factors to the domain names according to owner, registrar and other whois changes.
