Nevertheless it is possible, and if you don't do it you loose out. The travel industry is known for including these kinds of tactics in their marketing strategy. You need to be on edge to prevent this from happening to your trademark, and many loose out because of their lack of knowledge and understanding of the possibilities out there. I get your point about Google not being a catalogue and it’s fairly easy to post find negative (instead of positive) remarks on you trademark, but can you compare that to buying trademarks? Should we not respect the registered TM? I've done the same as you, bought other copmpanies trademarks, both domains and ad words, I did it because no one stopped me, and to gain more profit for my company, but it doesn't mean that I'm a fan of the practice. Anyway, thanks for putting focus on the issue...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
