Fred McCaw was a bit late to the domain market. Getting started in 1999, he realized all of the good english-language domains were registered. So he registered generic domains in foreign languages, including his native Filipino. The first domain he registered was Rebelde.com, which means ââ¬Årebelââ¬Â in Spanish and Filipino. Over the holidays McCaw successfully defended a reverse domain hijacking attempt by media company Dori Media International, which has a spanish language soap opera called ââ¬ÅRebeldeââ¬Â.
