Thats from what I heard from two of my friends.
They would rather probably have tens of torrents, tubes and filelockers in SERP results then their own affiliates.
well i am not disputing that some of these programs, whom run affiliate programs, could see a similar domain as infringement.

However, that doesn't really answer if it's not only morally just, but contains any business sense at all, threatening to sue an affiliate for trying to promote the program.

If the 'similar domain' is promoting competitors, that's infringement. If it's promoting the 'original program', how in the world is that infringement?
