Do they have a trademark on pornhub? If so, they can take it if they want it.

As a general rule, it's not a good idea to stand in the way of a steamroller.

Posting that you bought such domains is probably not a good start.

Host outside the US. Buy the domain from outside the US. Be outside of the US. They can't touch you. Just rake in cash. Sponsors won't care either. Fucking sweet!

WTF?

I own pornhubs.com, porn-hub.com and pornhub2.com. They have nothing to do with pornhub.com, I didn't even think of them when I registered the domains...

Looks like this is going to be thumbzillas.com all over again.

they don't have to register a trademark in the US to own it
first use in commerce is what counts

When did you buy it? If you bought it and branded it before them, then you can sue them

they will most likely file a WIPO case and when that is ruled in their favor the domain name will most likely be transferred over to them.
