What's the point of google.aero?

Came across this weird domain name google.aero, which doesn't belong to Google and points to a rather farcical web page. I just have 2 questions. Why isn't Google doing anything about this? And what's the owner of this domain playing at, risking the big G's wrath by registering a Google domain and then using it for… nothing much really?

I thought .aero was strict about who could register domains?

Or has that changed?
