.CO INTERNET: .CO absolutely cannot and will not be marketed as a typo to .COM. This is what we refer to as "wink, wink, nudge, nudge."
If you're not in Colombia, what other plausible reason is there to register a domain there, for three times the price of one in .COM?
It can be a duplicate but that doesn't mean it's squatting. It can also mean that one can register a .co that might be held by a speculator under .com
Hey, I never said it was just for squatting. The question was why you'd register a domain in .CO if you weren't in Colombia, and you seem to be agreeing with my point that it's because it looks sort of like .COM. I don't see any reason to tell the Colombians not to do what they're doing, particularly since they are, if anything, being too sympathetic to the arguments from the trademark crowd. R's, John
