    "Neiman Marcus allege[s] that Defendants' acts are wilful and malicious, and intended to injure and cause harm to Neiman Marcus," said the court documents lodged by the firm. It claims damages of $100,000 per domain name registered, which means that the total requested damages amount to more than $4 million.

    The suit goes on to say that because the alleged behaviour of the two registrars was wilful, Neiman Marcus is entitled to have its damages trebled, to over $12 million. In addition to those damages, it says that the company will ask for damages relating to trade mark dilution and infringement, the amounts of which will be determined at trial.
    The problem isn't tasting and commoditization imo but instead "Kiting" and Squatting.
