Re: [NA-Discuss] Domain hijacking story
Not really, but thanks for trying
Seth, We appear to differ then on whether absent resolution by, or non-resolution to (as there are marks which are registered as domains for which no resolution is sought by the registrant), any public, a public interest exists. If this is the case, would it be fair to characterize your view as being that every string generated under the old letters-digits-hyphen rule, or the two (newer and newest) valid IDN characters rule, having length less than 63 octets, is of equal public interest upon the act of registration? If so, is this public-interest-upon-registration present in all registrations? Can symbolics.com be distinguished from any of the registrations made while you read this? Can panix.com?

I think the Wikipedia item needs updating but I am not the one to do it. Consider, that we do not have laws for the theft of a wallet, a cell phone, a sailboat, etc., we have a law against theft. Society has always been slow to accept that pre-Internet laws can sometimes work well for post-Internet property if one is not afraid - now that many judges grew up in the Internet age, they are less afraid. We also have quite a number of new laws that are aimed at domain names and data hijacking.

Every domain name has a public interest aspect, just like every trademark does, that members of the public not be deceived, but admittedly, some domains have almost no public interest concern while others are overwhelmingly of a public interest. -----Original Message----- From: Eric Brunner-Williams [mailto:ebw@abenaki.wabanaki.net] Sent: Monday, June 17, 2013 4:21 AM To: Seth M Reiss Cc: na-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org Subject: Re: [NA-Discuss] Domain hijacking story
