Symform, Inc. which was acquired by Quantum Corporation for $500,000 in 2014, registered 44 domain names at corporate domain name registrar MarkMonitor yesterday all relating to US presidential candidate Donald Trump in less than a flattering fashion.
Quantum Corporation is a publicly traded company on NYSE: QTM
Qauntum has a market cap of $207 Million. Both Symform and Quantum seem to be in the cloud storage business.
Donald Trump is a registered trademark
Trump is also a registered trademark
According to Verisign “Trump” was the 4th of the top 10 trending Keywords for .Com registrations for the month of August.
Some of the domain name registered yesterday refer to Trump as being a bully:
- TrumpBully.com
- DonaldTrumpBully.com
- DonaldBully.com
Several relate to “Insults”
- DonaldTrumpInsults.com
- DonaldTrumpInsultsRUS.com
In total, 44 domain names were registered by Daemon Le of Symform, Inc. whose parent company is Quantum Corporation according to Wikipedia. For some reason, many domain names are showing Roger Pies with a gmail email address [email protected] and I refresh the screen in DomainTools then whois then shows Symform, Inc. for some domains. Really odd.
None of the domains seem to be resolving as of publication.
Here are the 44 domain registrations:

Hyperbole is defined in the English dictionary as: exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally.
Trumperbole is a fictional term. As is Trumphony.
Is one a bully by calling another a bully?
