Mobile net names a bit dotty
There are a few stories, such as this one published in both The Australian and Financial Times, questioning the value of dotmobi. The story reports “critics across a broad swath of business, the law and academe are railing against the proliferation of new domains, which they claim are costly and a cause of fraud”. While there is support across industry, a senior lawyer from Verizon Communications, Sarah Deutsch, is quoted as saying “there is no particular business need”. The article also quotes Marcus Eggensperger, legal director at Lycos Europe, saying “As a registrar, we are lucky because we have new markets but, to be honest, for trademark owners it could be a problem to have to make defensive registrations.”
