The proliferation of so-called cybersquatters, people who register the Internet domain names of high-profile companies in hopes of reselling the rights to those names for a profit, led to passing the Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act in 1999, allowing companies to seek up to $100,000 in damages against those who register domain names with the sole intent of selling companies to seek up to $100,000 in damages against those who register domain names with the sole intent of selling them later.
doing分词短语在句尾
1.表示动作,状态,功能,逻辑主语等于句子主语
2.表示伴随结果,主句是因,导致分词动作产生,无逻辑主语
这里allowing很是适合第二条啊,led to the passage是因, allowing是果
allowing在语法上肯定是没有问题的,但是在逻辑上就有问题了。首先,allowing修饰主句主语或者led动词施动者(都是proliferation)是不合逻辑的; 其次,若allowing表示伴随结果,则应该是前面整句(A led to B)作为整体表示原因。这就产生了矛盾,很明显,应该是Act 允许公司怎么怎么样,而不可能是A led to B, 这种行为允许公司怎么怎么样;
