<br>name to typosquatters. It also briefly evaluates potential detrimental<br>effects of typosquatting for consumers and legitimate businesses. Part II<br>then adresses how the launch of the .eu top-level domain anticipated
<br>cybersquatting by allowing the holders of a prior right to a name to<br>register the matching .eu domain during phased registration. I assess<br>whether the phased registration also permitted preventive registering of
<br>domains likely to be subject of typosquatting. Part III goes on to describe<br>the alternative dispute resolution mechanism in EC Regulation 874/2004. In<br>conclusion, I argue that typosquatting is sufficiently remedied by the EU
<br>regulations on the .eu domain, and I suggest a diligent and pro-active<br>domain registering approach to holders of valuable trademark portfolios.<br><a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://www.droit-technologie.org/actuality/details.asp?id=1049" target="_blank">

<br>Accreditation Agreement provoked wide-ranging debate about ICANN's purpose<br>and the rights of registrants to their domains. It also raised the specter<br>of how to respond to the failure of an actual registry, rather than a
<br>registrar. Susan Crawford, ICANN board member and moderator of the<br>discussion, broached the question of whether an entire TLD could be allowed<br>to fail, or rather should be maintained somehow in perpetuity.<br><a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/06/26/icann_raa_san_juan/" target="_blank">

www.chicagodoctors.com</a>. They fill these sites with ads from Google or<br>Yahoo, getting paid for every click. This game has morphed into what is know
<br>as Google arbitrage, filling the page also with just enough content that it<br>will actually be found by search engines, and in turn attract users who<br>simply see ads and click again to get somewhere useful.<br><a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/06/27/more-than-just-squatting-on-domain" target="_blank">
