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 them later.

解释说分词结构allowing…修饰有歧义。为什么不可以是分词作伴随状语表示结果呢?我觉得此处allowing没错啊

A项里的allowing可以视为直接修饰句子主语 The proliferation of so-called cybersquatters


然而，逻辑告诉我们它其实是想修饰那个新通过的法案的。。

s

正确的应该是C吧
allowing可以修饰前面整个句子，或者修饰主句的主语；伴随的话，就是作为modifier补充说明passage允许XXX；但是allowing也可以修饰the proliferation, 这样意思就不是原文的意思了。
