Somebody made statement that DuPont got put in Sunrise by 'accident' - for science.infoI
honestly believe this is a LIE, to cover themselves from being accused of fraudulant
abuse of the (flawed) system.
My evidence:
A few quotes.
In the first major
address expansion since the mid-1980s, many common words are among those claimed
as company trademarks – some with shaky claims to validity.
Russ Smith, who operates
Consumer.net, wanted science.info, but chemical giant DuPont Co already took it.
He looked up about three dozen other names and found all were already claimed as
well.
DuPont spokesman Clif Webb acknowledged the company doesn't have a trademark
on “science,” but it has one on “The miracles of science.” Webb declined comment
on the fairness of early registrations, saying the company is re-evaluating its policies.

Mr
Webb did not say, "It was registered in Sunrise by error" - did he?
He tried to
defend this abuse of the 'flawed' registration process, saying they had “The miracles
of science” trademark.
He declined to comment on the fairness of early registrations
- because it certainly is not fair.
As he said "the company is re-evaluating its
policies" - it looks like they are guilty as sin - but will leave that up to you,
the jury, to decide.
Allow me to comment further on early registrations:
No TLD
can be considered OPEN or FAIR, if Big Business are given priority over people.
Big
Business abridges what words people can use - it is a violation of the First Amendment.
The
authorities, including the United States Department of Commerce, are CORRUPT in letting
them do this.
Please - anybody that disagrees with my logically reasoned findings
- try to defend this corruption and abuse of peoples rights.
