Hi folks, We're not yet on the UDRP topic, but I thought this story should be bookmarked for our future policy work, as an example of how the UDRP policy can be misused to engage in reverse domain name hijacking: http://domainnamewire.com/2016/08/19/new-trademark-king-domainers-need-watch... which was also covered by two other blogs: http://onlinedomain.com/2016/08/17/domain-name-news/company-filed-udrp-googl... http://domaingang.com/domain-law/trademark-applications-for-tokyo-com-and-ro... It is important, in my opinion, to close the loopholes that are driving this kind of behaviour that targets domain name registrants. When very valuable domain names are coveted, but the costs of creating shell companies is low --- in the UK, merely £12: https://www.gov.uk/limited-company-formation/register-your-company and/or the costs of filing TM applications are low (under USD $10 for the Pakistan TM fees), the scale of the problem can be even greater.
