Porn site operator sues cybersquatters
Company goes after alleged cybersquatters of its adult site brands.
The company behind PornHub.com, RedTube.com and YouPorn.com has filed multiple lawsuits in U.S. District court against the owners of at least ten domain names it alleges are cybersquatting on its brands. The lawsuit was filed by Licensing IP International S.à.r.l., which is commonly known as MindGeek. Porn site operator sues cybersquatters | Domain Name Wire | Domain Name News & Views |

It's interesting that MindGeek didn't file UDRPs, but went straight for the lawsuit.
If the lawsuit is about 10 domains, it's just the tip of the iceberg. The number of exact matches, typos and other confusingly similar domains for popular tubes in all TLDs must be in the thousands. Quote:

In order to keep your trademarks safe you have to show you are enforcing them so even though this is just the tip of the iceberg it helps show enforcement if they ever have to fight for a trademark they really care about.

I wonder if they sent them C&D's first before starting the suite. A lot of people don't check for trademarks before buying domains.

i dont get it, if you dont like squatting, then buy the fucking typos! if you want to protect your brand, but the motherfucking typos! where is the fucking problem? do not cry later like some small fuck ... really, sorry, but i have enough of those crybabies ...
 oh, and if you get those domains, dont forget to leave them available, so other people can register and you can sue again ... voila!
