"Sex" is a generic word that can not be trademarked.
"HotMail"
probably is trademarkable.
Then again, WIPO is suffering from delusions of grandeur
lately, and thinks everything is trademarkable, and should be turned over to somebody
or another.
Litigation pays their salaries, don't ya forget, and justifies their
existence. And so when WIPO quietly issues a statement to the world such as "We favor
complainants 90 percent of the time," the world will jump to pay $1,500 per WIPO
ruling.
Call it constipated job security.
. . . Furthermore (and getting back
to what I was saying), the TLD is not a trademarkable element in a domain name.
For
instance, a company named SixNet, was not able to claim the domain Six.net. (Though
wasn't that actually turned over by a court AFTER WIPO had ruled in favor (again)
of the complainant?)
In trademark law, "Six.net" is the same as "Six." Generic.
