yah thats fucked up too. and if i don't pursue the fucker who owns the .xxx and they use it and try to establish trademark, i lose mine potentially. its extortion pretty much depending on how you look at it. many brokers will buy up all the names and then try to sell them to the owners or highest bidders at ridiculous pricing depending on the brand power of the domain.

its gonna be ugly.
