The current draft of the proposal suggests revoking the domain names of Web sites that conflict with "geographical terms," individuals' personal names and "tradenames." asks for input on whether the UDRP should be expanded to include geographical terms, personal names, and tradenames. My answer is * NO *. Each of these expansions a) goes beyond any treaty that has been negotiated and essentially amounts to the creation of new international law by WIPO without a treaty, and b) has the tremendous potential to hurt noncommercial speech and activity on the Internet.
