Sunrise B: Brand Blackmail, early period
For what it's worth, it looks like the Sunrise B is for blocking/making it impossible to register .xxx domains with your registered trademark such as MarthaStewart.xxx instead of having to pay to register (and presumably not use) MarthaStewart.xxx
If any other TLDs work this way, I don't know of them.
- robtoo 15y agoThe fee for Sunrise B appears to be almost the same as the annual fee for actually registering. I assume you won't have to renew, though.
- 16s 15y agoIt is a one-time fee. About 200 dollars. godaddy has the lowest price that I've seen (199.00). I think it's a smart idea (if you own a registered trademark) as 200 dollars is a lot cheaper than getting attorneys to go after trademark violators... even if it's a guaranteed win. Registered trademarks carry a lot of legal protection and someone would have to be nuts to try and build a porn website using a registered trademark that they did not own. No legit company would do that as their lawyers should catch it and realize the potential financial doom.
