How to prevent "malicious cybersquatting"?

2008-08-10T19:37:00.000-07:00

This domain name news is provided from the SK Net Service Company Ltd

The key strategy is to enhance the protection
Now, the malicious acts of cybersquatting appeared one after another. On the one hand, they are driven by interests, and on the other hand, the enterprises’ awareness of self-protection is not strong. Shenyang reporter said: "Now that China has more than 40 million registered institutions, but they only build over 1 million websites, no more than 10 million even added the pages, which means that there are 3 / 4 of the institutions have not applied for domain names. " It is obvious that to prevent malicious acts of cybersquatting, the simpliest and most direct way is to improve self-protection awareness of enterprise.

"If Chinese enterprises to curb malicious registered, the best approach is to first register their own. Domain name registration fees low, but once they are registered to pay a high price for redemption." Wang Yu lawyer told reporters.

Shenyang added: "In addition to enterprises registered their own domain names as soon as possible, it should have a similar domain names registered, so as to avoid speculation of its people registered to confuse the public."

So are there any other solution? » Zhenqing your lawyer, said: "can build a proper trademark registration defense system. According to 'a class of goods, a trademark, for a' principle, a certain well-known trademarks, and the mark in similar or similar categories of goods, respectively Registration for defense, so as not to be professional domain name speculators or registered trademarks. At the same time, strengthen market surveillance at home and abroad, pay close attention to trademark notice, discovered the same or similar trademarks in the timely submission of objections or disputes. "

For those registered domain names, domain name registration will also bring a lot of trouble to them, one of which there is great risk of investment in domain names. On the one hand, the value of domain names great uncertainty. Many investors have purchased a great number of domain names, need to pay large fees each year, and the future value of domain names is full of uncertainties. On the other hand, the law and constantly improve the business owners meant enhance the protection, domain name investors in the lower winning percentage, facing great risk of compensation.

In addition, Shenyang, said: "Chinese enterprises in foreign domain name registration and use, as root servers in foreign countries, sometimes occur in open circuit, or because foreign companies were reported to be blocked. Solve these problems are rather complicated, Causing unnecessary losses, China's foreign enterprises registered domain names There is a certain risk management. "

In recent days, according to the latest convening of the Internet Corporation for Assigned names and numbers (ICANN) resolution of the conference, in 2009. "China" will be written into the global root domain name system, which can be direct access to global Internet users. However, doing so might bring a new round of cybersquatting boom.

Microsoft billionaire investor Kaeryikan back to the negotiating table, but Yahoo has come to Shanqiongshuijin stage, even if Microsoft will eventually acquire Yahoo, the price will be lower than before.

Microsoft hopes the acquisition of Yahoo's investors finally found a reason to celebrate. Since the company first proposed in early February acquisition offer for Yahoo, Yahoo stock price has fallen by one third. However, Microsoft announced on July 7, the current board of directors if Yahoo were expelled, it is ready to re-acquisition negotiations with Yahoo. Affected by this news, Yahoo shares rose 12 percent to reach 23.91 U.S. dollars per share. Microsoft said in a statement: "Yahoo shareholders if the General Assembly elected the new Board of Directors, we will immediately start negotiations with the new board of directors."

However, even Kaeryikan successfully replace the current board and expelled from Yahoo's Jerry Yang, he may not be made before Microsoft's offer of 33 dollars per share. In fact, the final purchase price may be only 27 U.S. dollars per share, which is Microsoft's initial price of the current value.

Yahoo is not willing to give it before once again put the 47.5 billion U.S. dollars of the purchase price, which is a lot of reasons. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer as often said, time is money. Since Microsoft's initial offer of five months, the deteriorating economic situation, the regulatory environment has become better than before.

In addition, Icahn would like to sell out to Yahoo, he simply do not care about Yahoo's strategic plan, in this case, Microsoft in the negotiations certainly occupy a certain advantage. Icahn hope that Microsoft and Yahoo deal can be reached, he did not want Yahoo operate independently, so he repeatedly failed to deal with Microsoft on grounds of the Canadian accused Jerry Yang. Icahn in an open letter to shareholders, he said: "Jerry Yang and the current board of directors will not be able to negotiate with Microsoft, because they have no chance."

According to informed sources said, Microsoft and Icahn did not consult on the transaction price, but Icahn clearly shows his willingness to Microsoft before the Yahoo acquisition price will be sold to Microsoft's wishes. Icahn open letter in the first two painted a Microsoft acquisition of Yahoo may face the risk. Icahn said: "Ballmer the idea is very simple." He explained that Microsoft worried that the Fair due to improper handling by the regulatory agencies to review, thus leading to its loss of a lot of money.

Icahn as one would like to sell to Yahoo Microsoft, Yahoo and not concerned about the development strategy. This is also Yahoo's board of directors Icahn urged investors to vote against the main reasons. Yahoo's board of directors issued a statement: "Icahn leadership of the Board of Directors will not consider Yahoo as well as to the best interests of shareholders." Yahoo's board of directors also pointed out that Icahn and development for Yahoo's no detailed planning, the deal the initiative In the hands of Microsoft. Microsoft May 3 after the withdrawal offer, have repeatedly stressed that it has no intention to buy Yahoo as a whole.

Because of the deteriorating macroeconomic environment, Microsoft can no longer gives a higher offer.

U.S. consumer credit crisis, prices plummeted, and high oil prices and the overall economy into recession are worried about the stock market crash led to the negative factors. Some people think that, because advertisers, especially financial companies to reduce the advertising budget, Yahoo has been the development of a low ebb. That is to say that Yahoo's performance may be lower than expectations, at least it is certainly better prospects for the development of March release second-quarter earnings of the newspaper so bright.

UBS analyst Ben Schachter in the July 7 report that the investors, he considered that Microsoft and Yahoo deal is still possible, but prices are likely to be lower than before. He expected the deal before the purchase price may be 34 U.S. dollars, but now he thought Microsoft's bid can not be more than 33 U.S. dollars. As Microsoft's offer to withdraw after Yahoo shares keep falling, while Yahoo's search and display business is deteriorating and he is expected to Microsoft's acquisition of Yahoo's final price may be 31 U.S. dollars to 33 U.S. dollars between.

However, Schachter predicted the price still optimistic. Yahoo investors to maintain an independent strategic point of no confidence. Yahoo and Google recently reached a cooperation agreement search, there are market rumors that Yahoo is the contemporary Warner's America Online merger negotiations conducted, but the news failed to stop Yahoo fell. Investors have little enthusiasm for other options, which can confidently make Ballmer said Microsoft's offer is most beneficial to the shareholders of Yahoo.
