Why is ICANN and friends WIPO pretending they do not know the SIMPLE ANSWER to the
trademark problem?Sunrise etc is all a load of bull - they should not have to
buy trademark name in every TLD (new trademark tax?).
This is not possible anyway
- thousands may share their name.
Businesses want a short and pretty domain name.
Therefore, as example, Apple Computers could use Apple.com for advertising and
marketing purposes - This is legal usage.
However, for *TRADEMARK USE* it *HAS*
to be unique, short is therefore just *NOT* - repeat *NOT* possible.
Apple Computers
are abusing its trademark for a dominant position - due to ICANN deliberate mismanagement.
Apple
Computers therefore needs another domain name for trademark use.
This should be
*OBVIOUS*
Trademarks have to be identified with "®", so they could make domains
consistent with existing law using Dot REG as identifier.
A trademark *NAME* is
for a specific *CLASS* in a specific *COUNTRY*.
A domain name in the format
- name.class.country.reg would be a unique identifier - no trademark conflict.
Example
for Apple Computers in United States would be - apple.tech.us.reg
They take people’s
domain names in UDRP because of feeble trademark excuses.
These domains are not
trademarks - it is a LIE.
So, you choose - is ICANN acting in Bad Faith or Imbecility?
