While I agree with the dissenting opinion here that the majority, as usual for UDRP decisions, has stretched the policy to the breaking point in order to once again find in favor of a trademark holder, I also find somewhat questionable the motives of the respondent in using the domain name. If it's just used for internal use, there isn't really any point to getting a separate domain name, particularly one with another company's name in it; the purpose could better be served by using hostnames or subdomains within the respondent's own domain, which would not require any registration or renewal fees, not subject them to UDRP proceedings, and would organize their sites in a more logical structure.

I see what you're saying, but in this case none of the panel put much store in the blocking argument. If you want to spend money on a domain name and use it for internal purposes, then that's your choice. I can't see that that constitutes bad faith use.
