If you also think Verisign have gone too far, may I humbly suggest the
following:

Call 0800-032-2101 and select option 2 for Support.

Explain to the engineer that you have typed in an non-existant domain
name and been directed to their sitefinder service.

Explain that you have read the "Terms of Use" and do not agree to abide
by them.

Explain that, as you don't agree to the ToU, you are explicitly
forbidden from using their service.

Ask them to exclude your IP block from those that will be given the
sitefinder IP rather than NXDOMAIN.

Give them your name, company (if appropriate) and a contact telephone
number.
