    Think about the above for moment. Makes allot of sense!

    Let's define a Trademark:
    A trademark is a word, symbol, or phrase, used to identify a particular manufacturer or seller's products and distinguish them from the products of another

    Let's define an Infringing mark:
    Trademark infringement is a violation of the exclusive rights attaching to a trademark.
    The "infringer", uses a trademark which is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark owned by another party

    Does sedoz dot com sound like sedo, does it have anything to do with domains?

    What this person did was dilute the trademark of sedo and that is confusingly similar, by parking at Sedo servers alone. There is no way for Joe public to discern the difference.

    If the owner of Sedoz dot com put a ice shop website they could have been safe, they might have a right because it is not the same thing, not the same service or product, not confusing to the public.

    However, it's important to mention also that the rights of the Trademark holder are especially prevalent where the name used is a fanciful term, a unique term such as; Sedo, Afternic, Nike, Reebok, eBay, Microsoft, Xerox, Kodak, etc... These names are recognized in their respective industries.

    Consumers and TM holders have rights to. Or don;t they count?

    I was a little testy last night, but still stand by my post. The OP listed a confusingly similar TM on the TM site to PARK AND SELL the domain (to make moeny for someone else's hard work). So basically, the OP wanted to profit off of a similar TM on the TMs own site... common sense people.. common sense.

    I too, do not live in Africa, but if I did, I would still know what the OP did was not a smart thing to do. lol

    I would love to break out a "read my sig" tag line here...
    Track emails that you send, PM me to find out how....
