Ask this guy who he is afiliated
with.....(click on the link below--public domain)>>>>FYI, since my company owns
the trademarks - my.web, host.web, and portal.web, I am confident that I will be
able to claim it through the Afilias Sunrise Period<<<<
What a farse this Sunrise
has become...Now this person is trying to say he should be awarded a generic domain
through the Sunrise automatically???? If there was a Sunrise (and I am adamantly
against any proposal as such for legal reasons), I would say that people who have
unique or established TM's should have preemptive rights, (such as McDonald's---however
I don't think that McDonald's should have dot per or a dot nom--since this is a noncommerical
domain...However do you SEE the problems here...legal battles, etc)
>>>P/S: ICANN
Board, please show the internet community that you care for stability, competition,
diversity, and intelectual property protection. This can be simply done by giving
.Web to Afilias<<<
Obviously your trying to appeal to ICANN on this subject as
you think Afilias will give you the advantage...YOUR WRONG...Any Sunrise, would be
meant by immediate legal action...You cannot as a TM owner have those kinds of rights,
they are unprecendented and open to problems, such as who would own, United.web (the
airlines or the moving vans)....A trademark is supposed to protect your interests
whether it be intellectual property or a product....If you by chance accidently infringe
on someone else's TM, you will MOST likey end up in court to challenge the accuser...It
will be on the Accuser (the one with the burden of proof) to show in a court of law,
their prescribed rights..Then in open fashion, the judge will decide who gets what...As
it should be....This is not an easy process (it was never meant to be for obvious
reasons---i.e will in a sense dilute TM's as their maybe others who own the same
TM, but in a different class)...The Sunrise would offer no chance to appeal, and
if there was appeals----i.e legal mess, then your back to square one, with UDRP,
which is where we need to be, (right now anyways---jurisdictional courts may decide
differently later).... So nice try wiredZ....Hope this helps!
