Well when you say generic, I assume you just mean a brandable dictionary word like "summit" or whatever. Not a word that is descriptive of the product or service - which in theory wouldn't be trademarkable on that product or service. So in that case, as long as your usage doesn't infringe on...

If its intellectual property, just renew it. That's the safest and cheapest way to protect it if you think it is IP worth protecting.

Unless the trademark is for the same product or service you plan to use it for too, then the trademark isn't an issue. And if you're targeting Canada exclusively, its definitely acceptable. And when you say they have a trademark on that domain, you really mean the trademark is on the word and...

I apologize to Dynadot, anywhere in my previous post where I said Dynadot, I meant Domaineasy... I noticed my mistake too late to edit it. I have used dynadots registrar services before, but never domaineasy, so I guess I just had dynadot stuck in my brain.

Yes, that is very interesting. Is this precedent setting? So if you receive a good offer on a true generic dictionary word domain, you can now contact a trademark holder without it being bad faith? Would be interesting to hear @Zak 's thoughts on this.

If you say something enough times, people might believe it is true, lol.

Yes, that is precisely the way I would insist on conducting a transaction through Dynadot as well. Price plus 13% HST since the buyer (dynadot) is in Ontario. However, Godaddy brokerage insists on billing through their US offices. But considering that Godaddy is incorporated in Canada and has...

We are Canadians negotiating .CA domains. Anything but $CAD is silly. Why force the parties involved to deal with two FX exchanges and the resulting fees and hassle? The lack of $CAD pricing and transactions is just more incentive to skip escrow and/or sales platforms and just work directly...

Well according to humbleworth, my portfolio is worth $700M at the Brokered Estimate averages. For that I'd be willing to pay 25% commission! One time offer, buy it all for 10 cents on the dollar - no cherry picking. lol. After closer inspection, I see that a handful of my domains broke...

Yes, this is the real problem, a soft society that sympathizes with criminals - and of course the useless judicial system that is more afraid of infringing on a criminals rights than upholding citizens rights. These stories are everywhere. In some areas of the states, judges are elected and at...

Umami, which is also known as monosodium glutamate is one of the basic five tastes including sweet, sour, salty, and bitter. Umami means “delicious savory taste” in Japanese, and its taste is often described as the meaty, savory deliciousness that deepens flavor. Umami-rich foods deliver that...

I've never even had a walmart send me a request to review a product. My wife watches a lot of crime shows and many people get busted for murder and the video evidence of them buying a carving-knife, heavy duty garbage bags and bleach right after a murder helps convict them. So if Walmart is...

If you haven't heard of the word umami, you're probably not a foodie.

Most likely total b.s.

as long as its not your website, its easy to think that. but these bots are hitting sites at thousands of connections per second and are effectively a DOS attack, making servers crash.
