Why do you doubt?

You're not quoting the Whois ... in its entirety, IMHO. :blink:

And then, following up at Whois.sc for the ^ email address ... and I'm wondering what other's thoughts are regarding the ownership of the referenced domain, IMHO.

Technical contacts, etc do not have to be the same as the registrant contact info.

Registrant Organization Deutsche Telekom AG :bingo:

The TM organization and date shown in the registrant section of the whois should be THE important piece of evidence to satisfy this latest chapter in your ongoing quest to uncover dot mobi domain indescretions.

There's a phone number listed there - if it's that important to you, give them a call - and explain how you immediately don't trust the validity of any corporate news for dot mobi names ... and then ask them why Pinky hasn't called them either. We will await your report. If we find out that the CEO and COO of T-mobile are not riders on the bike team then I guess dot mobi is doomed.

The nuances of ownership in this case are completely irrelevant. T-mobile sponsors this team, and no doubt the PR people have to sign off on any use of their logo on any new site. Even if T-mobile doesn't own it, T-mobile knows about this site and has agreed to it's logo on it and its name in the domain. If they don't know about it some people are going to get a serious a$$ whooping.

Sounds logical to me, thanks for your opinion and addressing my original question! :gl:

Exactly....

You're welcome. Having dealt with corporate marketing folks as an art director, they sign off on everything. Make a minor change to the art that isn't approved and they throw a $hit fit. From major grocery and drug store chains like Safeway and Longs, major California wineries like Gallo, Kendall Jackson and Robert Mondavi and even Intel, they have all basically behaved the same. If their logo is on it they want to see it first.

The tech contact might be the web developer or host. That's often the case with major companies. They take whois very literally when they ask for technical and administrative contacts. Most of us domainers use the exact same info on all 3 but not most large companies.

 

[fautebol]

Lovells is a famous law firm. It's their adress in Paris that's indicated in the whois.
