Forcing squatters to have to file a trademark to retain their squatted domains would improve the squatting situation 10000x. Clearly the current Workbetter.com

  The article makes it sound like he was willing to sell very cheaply on the condition that the new owner actually use the domain and not resell it. That's not really squatting behavior.

    That's not what the article says at all: "Mehta made it clear he was interested only in the name and Kneen reconsidered briefly, even proposing some restrictions including a required payment if Mehta resold the domain. Ultimately, however, Kneen refused to sell."

  It's only squatting if someone already owned the trademark. That clearly was't the case 16 years ago. A startup tried to buy a domain and failed. So instead of moving on, they decided to sue. Sounds like a winning plan to me.
