Who said there would be no cybersquatting in the new gTLD space?
Plenty of Google Glass typos were registered on the 1st day of general availability.
Interestingly all of the registrations are public not under privacy leading me to conclude that there are just a lot of new “domainers” who don’t know anything about the laws, rules and restrictions around domain names.
The new gTLD domain name goggle.glass was registered by someone in Ohio who used his real name.
The domains:
googl.glass
gogle.glass
Where both registered by someone in Minsk again not under privacy with presumably his real name
The domain name Google-apps.glass was registered by someone else in Texas also not under privacy.
Googlemaps.glass was registered by someone else in California
gooogle.glass was registered by someone in Michigan
thegoogle.glass was registered by someone in Indonesia.
Google did register one domain related to its product, Googleglass.glass
If your wondering why Google didn’t register Google.glass its on the restricted ICANN collision list so no one including Google could register it.
Of course Google isn’t the only company that got cybersquatted on in the .Glass space, here are a few more regitrations that seem suspect at best:
snapchat.glass
superbowl.glass
tiffany.glass
yelp.glass
worldcup.glass
