As we know, it is illegal to own the trademark domains, but you will find that some domainers still buying them.Umm, what kind of question is this?
MONEYWhy do you think that some domainers are still buying this kind of domain names.
I fully agree with this. I have a Jeep domain for a personal website. I've had it for 10 years or so. Never had a problem. It's obviously a personal website, so I doubt I ever will.Its not illegal to own trademakred domains!
It all depends what do you do with it!
What if the Apple orchard owner had iApple.com?This issue has been extensively covered since the beginning of domain investing. Just because a term is a trade marked, owning the domain may not constitute bad faith. There are multiple variables involved in the determination of bad faith.....As an example, if an Apple orchard owned Apple.com it would not be bad faith.
I think there is No problem with it.What do you think about registration of already TM keyword1keyword2 /com, but if it will be used within different niche than trademarked version?
There is No problem with generic keyword.I own more than 10 generic one word .com domains which were registered pre-2000, they are trademarked by thousands of companies in the world.
I have some of trademark domains in the past, and I have received a warning from the official trademarks lawyers, to return them the domains.but in truth? nothing bad really happened to the domainer.
How?Even clear tm- s can be used in legitamate way
How?
That's totally inaccurate and illegitimate, as using any Trademarked companies name in a fan site, hate site, any site for that matter, without that companies express written consent, in relation to that companies business realm, is a trademark violation, subject to a UDRP filing and most likely seizure of said domain or domains, upon adjudication of UDRP filing. Let alone a potential lawsuit for libel and or slander. I'm all for free speech but you can't cybersquat a trademark to do so, you'd have to find another domain to get your "company sucks" point across. More and more companies are becoming more familiar and comfortable filing UDRP's against people using, profiting or tarnishing their marks. It costs upwards of $2,200 plus to file a UDRP but it's money well spent for a company to protect its mark and brand!Microsoftsucks dot com, where you say that microsoft sucks. Thats legitamite way
