I don't know what your job entails, but my job description includes the phrase "keeping the network and all associated servers and services functional." Which means, among other things, making sure DNS works. Were I to go with new.net, I would be remiss in my duties and should (though I probably wouldn't) be fired.
I buy that as a reason for you not to use them, and I buy that as a reason for me not to use them. I don't buy it as a reason to make what they're doing illegal, which is what a few in this discussion are advocating. That'd be like making IPX illegal, because it prevents those machines from properly interoperating with TCP/IP.
