Apple Go After Squatter, Watch Out www Squatters

Posted on February 7th, 2010 by admin in Domain News | No Comments »

We recently blogged about domain squatters who registered big company typo domain names – wwwbing intriguingly pointed to a page sporting a troll called Walter Will Wawrinka Bing, and we quoted TechCrunch with regards to a mac review site on wwwapple.com.

Well it appears Apple Inc have had enough – they have just filed a UDRP dispute resolution case with wipo.int in reference to wwwapple.com. The case is still “Compliance Review Pending” but it should be a no-brainer.

Other typo squatters of big companies include:
wwwmyspace.com, wwwfacebook.com, wwwgmail.com, wwwcnn.com, wwwdigg.com, wwwning.com, wwwespn.com, wwwbing.com. They all probably can expect a UDRP case of their own in the future.
