Getting free traffic by Redirecting bad DNS requests

ICANN formally condemns this practice by ISPs and software companies: http://www.pcworld.com/article/183135/ Here's the formal source: http://www.icann.org/en/topics/new-g...24nov09-en.pdf

Do they actually have any authority to tell ISPs what to do? It sounds like they are just discouraging the practice?

So long as there's money to be made from it (and I bet its a ton), I can't see ISP's changing back.
