When domains are seized, does the new "owner" pay the registration renewals? If so, what's to stop someone from doing this:

- create a vanity TLD with high renewal fees

- register a bunch of sites that are mirrors of already seized domains

- mention them in enough places they get noticed

- ???

- profit

I don't think governments seizing domains are paying anything.
