Name: Tony Dennum Organization: CACI Position: Vice President This comment is in reference to your decision on how to decide on domain name issues. Trademark words I can understand. But personal names??? What, so I can go in and trademark my name now? Since when did you take on the functions of the doing trademarks? If the word is trademarked, who are you to decide that it will be trademarked as a domain name? You guys really look stupid taking away domain names from valid customers and giving the name to the highest bidder (it's so obvious... and if it's not your intention, you need to work on your PR). I mean really... since when was a person's name "intellectual property". In regards to geographical location disputes, the domains already have this built in don't they? Use a country code for the domain suffix. I've also seen RFCs that actually had names designated for states in the US. Play it smart and just keep it the good old "First come, First serve" method. If a name is trademarked, then I can understand you ruling for the plaintiff. Otherwise, I wonder (and I'm sure others do as well) what the REAL motivating factor is behind some of these stupid decision that you keep making. |
