Claim BonusAI News: Aston Martin Wins .ai Domain Name Court Battle
Highlights
- Luxury car brand has won its .ai Domain name legal brawl against Kindpedia
- The car brand filed a complaint to WIPO against a domain registered by Kindpedia
- This lawsuit has set a major precedent in the burgeoning AI world
After voicing its fears about a confusing and similar domain name that is identical to its brand, the latest AI news confirms that luxury British sports car manufacturer Aston Martin has finally bagged victory in court against Kindpedia
The Aston Martin Trademark Confusion
Last year, it was discovered that one American company DNS Admin, Kindpedia bought the AstonMartin.ai domain name and listed it for trading the day after. Precisely, he registered AstonMartin.ai and listed it for sale on the Caribbean island of Anguilla. The move led to a protracted legal battle that had its focus on the AI component.
Ordinarily, the island of Anguilla uses the .ai country code ending for its local domain names. Therefore, when the luxury car manufacturer filed a lawsuit against the enterprise, the lawyers argued that Aston Martin did not own a trademark in the region. This looked like a bold defense against Aston Martin but it could pass for a case of cybersquatting.
The American firm also stated that the car manufacturer did not have to go as far as filing the lawsuit to get the case resolved.
“…the Complainant has brazenly sidestepped any attempt at amicable resolution by blindsiding the Respondent with baseless claims and a malicious attempt to wrest control of a domain name to which it holds no legitimate entitlement under the Policy,” per a published statement. “This Machiavellian maneuver is a clear indicator of the Complainant’s nefarious intent to harass and intimidate the Respondent through underhanded means.”
