Thought Experiment:
Let's someone owns 'BrandProducts.com' - e.g. ApplePhones.com or SamsungPhones.com
And let's say this site is a content aggregator - just pulling news and reviews from around the web, related to that company's product. It displays news and reviews of their latest iphones, with no commercial intent or monetization.
Is this likely to:
a) trigger trademark disputes / ICANN claims from the company, or
b) trigger legal proceedings ?
Second question: Would the domain / site be valuable at sale, or will potential buyers steer clear?
Finally: Might the company itself wish to buy this domain from the owner, or are they more likely to try to obtain it via ICANN/trademark claim/lawsuit?
Let's discuss!
