Ford Suing Enthusiast Websites

Average: 5 (1 vote)

Websites such as The Ranger Station, Michigan Mustang and Mustang Evolution have all received legal notices from Fords lawyers. Jalopnik reports:

"In a recent letter to enthusiast web sites, Ford's reportedly requiring the relinquishment of all Ford trademarks including domain names, banners, signs and merchandise as well as a restitution payment of $5,000 by December 19th."

Brilliant idea on Ford's part. Sue the people who support you the most.

Is There Money in Fresh Domain Name Registrations?

Average: 3.3 (14 votes)

Can you buy a domain name today and flip it for a million bucks? It's a common notion that domain names are easy money and million dollar sales are always the first domain name sales cited. However, experts intuitively know this is misleading but perhaps nobody has really looked closely. Taking the top ~94 sales off namebio (excluded a few .de/.no/.at and a couple that were dropped since being purchased back in pre-2000 bubble) and looking at registration date and comparing to sales price was very interesting.

Enom Fraud

Average: 5 (1 vote)

Interesting case being talked about over at domainstate where someone has been pushing domains into someone else's account less than 14 days from renewal (enom apparently sends last notice at 14 days) with autorenew set and requests the domain back through support. Interesting security exploit. Appears the names were legally risky as well (tm's). Will enom fix this security vulnerability and implement an account push code or at least notify owners of domains pushed into their account?
