@NamecheapCEO If you purport to purchase this domain name in this auction, then you will be embroiled in that lawsuit and your purchase may be delayed, cancelled and/or reversed by Internet Identity, Namecheap, and/or the federal court.

[Mike Rodenbaugh @rodenbaugh]

@NamecheapCEO Mr. Gould has filed a lawsuit in the Central District of California (LINK: https://t.co/fARQH66ayz), and if neessary will seek an immediate Temporary Restraining Order to stop this auction and/or to restore this domain name to his account at OnlyDomains.

[Mike Rodenbaugh @rodenbaugh]

@NamecheapCEO WARNING: THIS DOMAIN NAME IS OWNED BY HOWARD GOULD. Mr. Gould timely paid renewal and restoration fees to the prior registrar OnlyDomains, and so he has demanded that the .AI registry operator Internet Identity, and Namecheap, cease and desist from auctioning this name.

Ouch. NOT funny. San Diego Comic Con wins $20k jury award, and almost $4 MILLION attorneys' fees and costs against Salt Lake Comic Con. 37-page order may be tough to appeal. Unwise to mock the trademark owner who asked you to stop infringing. #trademarks

Really, Italian appeals court, it's OK for a couple guys to create a STEVE JOBS fashion brand without his estate's or Apple's permission? I will bet that fight is not over yet... https://t.co/P484kqz2AB #trademarks #fb

Incompetent lawyers need to stop filing stupid UDRP cases; happens too often. But rarely do they follow on with a stupid federal lawsuit. Congrats Dave Caplan and team for $65k award in RDNH case! https://t.co/6N8qJZioBd I've got a similar case brewing right now... #FB

@Valideus And of course, ICANN and related terms are blocked as a matter of ICANN policy, solely to protect ICANN's brand. That #dotsucks !
