You are welcome to ascribe it to whatever you want. I will note that very few Non-profit organizations engage in such behavior. Very few governments do so, either. In fact, absent a corporate profit motive, this behavior seems very rare.Given the level of customer service most governmental agencies and non-profits provide, they¹ve got a lot of other usability holes to fill first before they start worrying about their ³clients² going to the wrong website. Secondarily, their clients going to the wrong location isn¹t going to put them out of existence. So on the level that profit=existence I¹d agree it¹s definitely profit motivated. But greed is pejorative term. -J
