The original idea has a better name: Bitsquatting[0]

"Experiment To determine whether bit7errors can redirect connections to attacker controlled sites, the bitsquat domains in Table 3 were registered, and all HTTP requests to the domains were logged. The domains, such as li6e.com, mic2osoft.com, and fjcdn.net are very unlikely to be typos or keyboard errors."
