Federal Court of Justice issues ruling on domain grabbing

Hmph. On the one hand good - because not everyone can just have their domain taken away. On the other hand, though, also bad - the domain grabbers will be happy now. And anyone who's dealt with such people knows how amusing it will be to get a domain back out from someone who just registered it as a speculative object. Whether we'll have to expect similar conditions as in the USA in the near future remains to be seen. At least with .com, .net and .org addresses, one increasingly finds only generic pages from grabbers who are setting up shop there.

M-Audio Ozonic Keyboard and FireWire Interface
