<snipped long message>
There was a woman in the paper, she was having problems with her Toyota
Camry, it had gone back to the shop numerous times to be fixed for many
things.. to make a long story short, the car finally burned, because of
a fault of Toyota, and they wouldn't take any responsiblity for it. She
was able to register I believe it was www.camry.com or something like
that, And she blasted em all over the net, she was taken to court
because she refused to take the site down and she won. The judge
basically said if you didn't want someone else to get that domain, you
should have registered it in the first place.... Granted the judge might
have seen her side of the story a little more.. taking on a large
corporation.. though I can understand his/her thinking.. I think if
Lego wants to make sure there's not dilution of their trademark/name
they should register any domain they feel should be theirs..AND..
anything they don't want to see their name on..they don't have to put
anything on the site.. just don't let someone else register it is all..
Just my thoughts on that...
