Default Adsense ban on less than 5 days old domains

Google will disqualify domain name that are five days old or less from generating revenue via Adsense very soon.

It has come to light that some companies uses "domain tasting" this is a practice where domain registrar takes advantage of the 5 days grace provided by domain name registry to delete registered domain name and get a refund of the domain registry fees.
Several companies are said to use (some will argue that its an abuse) this five day grace period by registering thousands of domain names, slap adsense on the domain for that five day period generate lots of money and then cancel the domain name.

Some companies has been know to generate millions of dollars using this method, one company was said to have made over three million dollars in one month.

What do you think of this ban, I would have thought as long as the click are not fraudulent clicks, you should be able to use this method?
