Domain name owner had a plausible defense, but didn’t bother to respond to the allegations.

Car company BMW has won rights to the domain name B.MW through a cybersquatting arbitration proceeding through World Intellectual Property Organization.

.Mw domain names are country code domain name for Malawi. .Mw domain names use the same UDRP rules applicable to other domains, such as .com.

BMW argued that the domain name registrant surely knew of the company, and that offering the domain name for sale for over $1 million was proof that it was registered in bad faith.
