.CO INTERNET: .CO absolutely cannot and will not be marketed as a typo to .COM. In fact, .CO should be marketed as exactly the opposite – as the most exciting TLD launch and the domain name extension that provides exciting new online branding opportunities with a truly global, recognizable and credible domain name extension. In fact, the .CO registry is implementing a Rapid Takedown Process to take action against websites in cases where phishing, pharming, malware, or other significant security threats have been identified. We have also developed policies to quickly suspend domains in instances where serial cyber-squatting can be established. If you do get questions around marketing .CO as a typo we encourage you to share our point of view around .CO of quickly becoming a thriving namespace and a premium domain. Our terms of service with registrars are very strict on this point"
Michele they may not be marketing as a "typo", but I already got email advertising from a registrar talking about the "new dotCOM" ... Cheers
