Yes, if grandma ordered a sign printed one way, and proofread it, and agreed
to pay for it, and the printer printed it, then the printer is normally
going to want money to make another different sign.  If grandma, or anyone
else, orders a domain, and confirms that's the domain they want, and get's
it activated, then they should pay at least the first years fee, no matter
what...

The real way to get rid of tasting would be to persuade Google and

I don't see a practical way to enforce it.

I believe the Net is an unstable system that will eventually be rendered
useless
by spam/etc.  It is a cheap unlimited resource - you pay for your
connection,
and you get access to things you are in no way paying for.  I don't see a
way to
fix it.
