If you wanted to protect the domains, you could have just dropped the $20 and bought them. Simple as that. The .org redirect isn't that strange. I see this stuff done all the time. The owner isn't making any money off your name. If you got HUGE, maybe he would but the .org is probably generating next to nil in traffic. Natural hit traffic is on the decline and has never been very good for .org's anyway. I don't see how the owner could monetize it piggy backing on you. He'll get bored when he doesn't get any bites from you and drop it. He's probably just a wannabe domainer. Frankly, I’ve never understood it when someone complains about a domainer buying their name.

Hopefully nobody here will. :P Anyway, there really is nothing to worry about for the .net and .org domains. The .org one is actually bringing you traffic.

No need to speculate when he can just tell you. This was probably asked before, but why don’t you just email the guy and ask him directly? No need to speculate when he can just tell you.

Suffice to say, I regretted not buying the .net when I had the chance. I don't really care all that much about .org domains, though.
