If the domain was bought after the brexit party was founded - I wonder if its ownership can be claimed by the brexit party. At least with EU domain (and domains of individual countries under EU law) this falls under this case. Meaning that if you claim domain just to sell it for profits and cannot prove you have other purpose - its ownership will be transferred to the "name owners".
- samwillis 7y agoI’m not so sure, I think it falls under the Parody definition in the European Copyright Directive. So it should be fair use? The Brexit party already have the .org and so have a primary domain already, they don’t need or require the .com.
- rat9988 7y agoGetting an official sounding domain is a bit beyond fair use.
