Basically - Bayer wants its trademark in "Aspirin" back. It was an amusing moment. During World War I, a lot of German trademarks abroad were revoked.

Basically – Bayer wants its trademark in “Aspirin” back.

It was an amusing moment.

Saul Hansell did an excellent job at simply stating what the issues are. And plainly so. But, who on earth brought up the 'Treaty of Versailles'? I have an idea of who I think would mention that. I just had to laugh out loud when I read that. It was indeed a very good read.

It’s ironic that the actual domain he links to is nytime.com - which is not a typo but a very valid domain for New York Time ... one of the main cities noted whenever you look for time zones. Unfortunately the yahoo feed parked.com is sending to this domain includes ads which highlight the New York Times newspaper and Time Warner etc.. I know there is precedent somewhere about ads that show and ultimately it’s the owners responsibility but you have to admit – owners have little control over these ads many times and who has the time to watch what ads are shown on a daily basis. Someday it would be nice to see the bulk of responsibility for TM infringement on domains like this shift to Yahoo and Google and away from the domain owner. Good post and good article.
