I am the respondent in a case before WIPO, and my answer is due in two days. I am making extensive reference to this case and the cases which supported this one. I have my doubts that WIPO will care; they seem to be more interested in creating law than in following US law even for cases involving US parties.
Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. The domains in question are http://www.arizonamotorsports.com and http://www.tucsonmotorsports.com . They detail my experiences with the state's largest chain of motorcycle dealers, who lie and steal at every opportunity. After three years of putting up with my site, they filed the WIPO complaint and also a local lawsuit.
The WIPO complaint is here: http://www.tucsonmotorsports.com/dispute/Complaint .pdf
I am working on my reply right now, up to five pages so far.

Reading this judgment, I consider that you use kind of a shortcut to say that sucks.coms don't violate Trademark Law. Nothing has been decided yet on the ACPA, which would be the relevant part, especially for your website and the UDRP procedures.

The following is nonsense:
Despite what ICANN is, the Registrars have the right to deduct their 75 cent fee as a DONATION to a valid non-profit company.
I pity your lawyer.
