Can you use a University's name in a porn domain?
If you realy have girls from that school could you still get sued?
|
I believe you'll eventually get sued because the school will think it's defamation of their name and reputation.
|
ya bad idea :) but what about LSU :)

A few years back I had a couple cam girls with their room set up to look like a NYU dorm room, with a NYU banner on the wall and shit like that. NYU sued me for $90 million. Crazy sum, totally ridiculous amount, but it sure did get me to stop.

I would think the girls could get kicked out of the U if it was found out...

definitely a very bad idea. i've learned it in the past the hard way.
not even using a porn site... should have been an unofficial team site, then I got to know that I'd just get sued using the trademarked logo on the site, or the name for that matter. Universities are very careful with defamation, don't go there. |

Many big schools' names are trademarked, their logos are trademarked, and they tend to be extremely protective and litigious. I live in Ann Arbor, and people try to sell counterfeit U of Michigan stuff here all the time...if you even have a block M on the merchandise, they crack down.
Avoid using the school name. Try to use a more generic geographic name. Something like michigancollegesluts.com would be ok, universityofmichigansluts.com would not. Don't show the school logo, don't mention teh school name...I think nebraskacoeds.com as a good example. When you're dealing with initials, you're in a gray area, with lsucheerleaders.com being a prime example. If they were portraying or showing scenes from a real college with the initials LSU (there are several), or using a college's logo, or maybe similar cheerleading uniforms, I think they'd be in trouble. But being about a fictitious university with those initials, I think they're relatively safe. |
Most colleges have the state name. You could make inferences and that would be hard to stop right?
Iowa University can't stop Iowa College gils right ? What if there is a Iowa college though? The terms are so generic it seems like that has to be ok. |
