Karl - you are 100% correct - UDRP is a disaster.
If you will forgive me saying - UDRP rules are a pathetic joke - practically gimme's.
Please close your eyes - my usual rant for casual reader:
Virtually every word is (or can be) registered as a trademark many times over by different type of business in same or different country.
There is bound to be confussion with domain names.
Even though these words are trademarks, it may be possible for you to register them in another class - or even legally use to start a new business without registering as trademark.
But - they will not let you register as a domain name (Sunrise) - or take it away from you (UDRP).
You can have the trademark - but not the domain name.
Indeed, you can use any words for any legal purpose you wish.
Errrr - is it only me that can see this is clearly trademark overreach?
Only crooks would support this corrupt state of affairs - US DoC - ICANN - UN WIPO - self-serving lawyers.
Guess why these crooks do not want the consumer to know which domains belong to trademark a holder.
