That is a very expensive oversight if they did not already negotiate.
I would not be surprised, however, if they already have an agreement (and kept it in his name until after the announcement, so that it would not be 'leaked' by the whois changing).
- dsl 10y agoI have a bunch of experience in this area. Domains are almost always acquired by a brand protection company like MarkMonitor or CSC. The domain is then transferred to the brand company or a shell company they own. A few years ago I sold a domain to a major video game company. They created an entirely new Delaware LLC to receive the name and hide the fact that it was an upcoming franchise.
