Is it true that PornHub.com is suing PornHub* domain owners?
 
Just bought a few domains keyword+pornhub.com, but have been told by friend that pornhub will take it from me. is it true?

MaDalton 04-24-2012 02:52 AM

i would do it if i was pornhub

Roald 04-24-2012 02:53 AM

Why wouldnt they?


http://www.pornhub.su

Oracle Porn 04-24-2012 02:54 AM

why would people call their sites *pornhub is beyond me.

Harmon 04-24-2012 03:03 AM

Probably a dumb purchase to begin with.

ChloeF 04-24-2012 03:18 AM

Oooooops! i think they will

DWB 04-24-2012 03:52 AM

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.

i would contact them first, they allow embedding from their site so best to ask.

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!

that is simply not true and you know it

alextokyo 04-24-2012 11:37 PM

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. :mad:

i thought it's differ, becuase pornhub couldn't be branded

but $10 isn't that big lose)

jigg 04-25-2012 02:01 AM

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

Same here, I'd crush them all.

Dirty Dane 04-25-2012 03:40 AM

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

MrDeiz 04-25-2012 03:42 AM

another question
if they challenge me, can i simply redirect that domain to another one?

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.
