Thanks for writing about this. A List Apart separating from the crowd once again with this in-depth analysis. I have invested some time in understanding the trademark protection, cybersquatting thing (as I inadvertently got involved in it) and everything in between. Do you think that domainers purchasing corresponding domain names might eventually get tracked down and hunted by prospective trademark/copy owners? So far, slogans used as (type-in) domains have been used for simple redirection to the corresponding trademark owners or launching (viral) campaigns. If a slogan/tagline/headline is a trademark, how can anyone but the trademark holder benefit from its usage? An interesting article! Thanks for writing about this.
