What happens if you where to register outside the United States?
www.gwbush.jp
Would that still fall under the Cybersquatting bill? I haven't read
through it yet, so I'm not sure what the whole ramification is.
I know that Amazon.com is seuing someone in another country for that
abuse (a bookstore owner and using same "advertising" clicks that Amazon
uses)..
So, I guess my question would be, does this bill intrude in the use
WORLD-WIDE or is it just a US thing (again...)
