Hi Group,
I am setting up a small business and have searched for suitable domain
names
for the website.
Although the .co.uk domain is available, the .com domain is not. It seems
that it belongs to someone in Finland and if you visit the website in
question all you get is a simple page with a name and address on it.
It is possible that that person has put their contact details there as a
means of inviting offers for the .com registration, and this is one avenue
which I may try.
However, I am interested to know whether there is any concept of "fair
use"
here. In other words, if someone has registered a domain but is not
actively using it, is there any route by which a person who has a genuine
business need for that domain can challenge it?
Regards,
Tanel.
