It doesn't matter if people get paid or not.

It is debatable whether the act of pointing a subdomain e.g. from ccc.de
to some machine run by "someone else" already implies "control" over
this service, but I would argue it doesn't, similar to how DENIC is not
responsible for what I do on a .de domain.
