LinkShare.com gets its .mobi domain in a WIPO |
The pioneer in online affiliate marketing LinkShare.com – with over 10 million partnerships – has won its .mobi domain in a WIPO case.
The panel concluded that the domain name LinkShare.mobi is confusingly similar to complainant’s registered LinkShare Marks. The respondent – Joseph Obringer from Glenview, Illinois, USA – has chosen not to respond to the complaint.
The panel concluded that Obringer has no rights or legitimate interest in the disputed domain name and that respondent registered and used the domain name in bad faith. Therefore the panel ordered that the disputed domain name LinkShare.mobi has to be transferred to complainant.

?Bad faith? costs Jonathan Witte valuable dotmobi domain |
Mansueto Ventures, the owner of Inc.com as well as a US trademark for "Inc" as the title of a monthly magazine, took on Jonathan Witte to have inc.mobi being transferred to them. It worked. Why?

Thus, so the judge's reasoning goes, he made the registration in "bad faith".
