Thanks.Corrupt ICANN cannot defend Sunrise in an 'open' gTLD.
All trademarks
will fight over the words they share with many others.
Sunrise abridges the use
of common words to the people and non-trademarked small business.
It was always
obvious that restricted TLDs were required for trademarks - I have been saying so
since first looked at situation, the end of 1999.
ICANN President Stuart Lynn and
Chairman Vint Cerf admitted about the use of restricted top-level domains to Reuters.
"More people I talk to think it's the more likely direction," said Llyn.
IMO history
will show these people in ICANN, US DoC and UN WIPO to be corrupt.
There are four
essential requirements (or attributes) to uniquely identify registered trademarks
on the Internet:
1. name
2. classification
3. country
4. trademark identifier
Try
to find an Honest Lawyer who will deny this fact - you will not.
Yet the authorities
continue to steal domains just entirely based on the name attribute. It is FACT that
virtually ALL domain names are identical or confusingly similar to a trademark.
There
is no doubt in my mind, using reasoned logic - based on all facts, they are corrupt.
