Close. I most certainly think that owners of sites like described should always be liable for what they do. But it only seems logical that a simple cross check at the registrar level could easily flag any potential TM's and then provide a checkbox that explicity says if you buy this particular name that you risk the legal reprocussions. (granted I know the Godaddy TOS probably already has this, but nobody reads that as a function of buying their names. And if a popup or something happens that may deter some buying of tm issues or at least give pause to consider the tm issue before buying.) As an analogy, this is why we have checks at gun stores to make sure you are legal to buy them. But you are suggesting that there should be no checks to buy guns, just lots more police officers and less due process.(in analogy)

I will be honest, I dont like MUCH of what sopa represents, as there are already mechanisms in place that assist the corporations with protecting their brand, on national and international levels. But sopa pushes that onto a government expense and not as a expense of doing business.




I am not talking about purses or watches or files including music. Intellectual property such as a quote of a copyright news post on a blog or forum, currently covered under fair use rules, SOPA calls the 'end user' the blog or forum, and is loosly written enough to make most blogs or forums illegal. In this case you are suggesting the reader of blogs or forums, is the 'end user', but that is not what you are saying for sure I presume.

"Intellectual property such as a quote of a copyright news post on a blog or forum" this already illegal here in the U.K the law was passed last year with no fuss here.
