I don't even see the first half as particularly damning. Owning a domain name doesn't mean you own exclusive rights for the trademark ---in that space---. Uzi Nissan (who I've just found out died, R.I.P), couldn't demand Nissan stop selling cars with Nissan, just because he owned Nissan.com, and wouldn't sell it. (sidenote: nissan.com is currently inaccessible to me. I wonder what'll happen to that domain, given the aforementioned death). EDIT: I used the words "in that space", was the wrong train of thought there, my bad.
