It's a very 2-bit effort to drive traffic to a website to inflate visitor counts. Both are from the early days of juvenile desperate SEO and definitely not best practices or anywhere close to legit advertising standards.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-86906749895963215562022-03-09T16:14:52.376-05:002022-03-09T16:14:52.376-05:00I wonder if David Climenhaga knows that the bottom...I wonder if David Climenhaga knows that the bottom feeding Levant has a domain in his name?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-68699896714720747842022-03-09T12:25:16.937-05:002022-03-09T12:25:16.937-05:00It's domain squatting because he's not doi...It's domain squatting because he's not doing anything with it, and the last time it was attached to an actual web page was 4 years ago.<br /><br />Robert could file a complaint with WIPO, get the domain transferred to him, and make Ezra pay damages. https://www.wipo.int/amc/en/domains/<br /><br />I'm sure you have a company, and people know you as the CanadianCynic (That's what I've known you as since we first interacted on Twitter years ago. You could easily prove trade usage.<br /><br />Years ago a client lost a domain to a plastic surgery place in New York. I don't remember the domain name off hand, but my client in Edmonton lost it because while they registered it, they just forwarded it to a different one. It was squatting and something they did on their own.<br /><br />We could have fought it, but the costs were astronomical. Ezra won't fight itl he doesn't even use the fucking thing.<br /><br />I have domains that I don't use public facing. They DO however go to a website to be active. It's easy to recover domains that are idle and idle for a while.RogueNerdOnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087657877258157160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-69101310493250908962022-03-09T11:09:58.684-05:002022-03-09T11:09:58.684-05:00Think you've mused on this issue before, but i...Think you've mused on this issue before, but is this legal?
