    We had no intention of making/hosting a website with the trademark. The company was in agreement.

    After we got it, the bossman comes to me and says “so we can make this email addresses now, right?”

    Like, duuude… It’s not his expertise, I know, but he thought web pages and email was totally separate systems.

    Anyway, that was almost 25 years ago. All water under the bridge.

      Sounds like you fucked up, tbh, you should’ve bought the domain even if not intending to use it, just for brand safety

        I couldn’t agree more.

        I spent almost a year getting my ducks in a row to sue and reclaim the domain

        The cost in time and resources for all of that, vs just registering the domain in the first place. 🙄

        That’s why Research in Motion (the developer of the Blackberry) had to buy the domain “rim.jobs” when the .jobs tld was launched.
