Insurance company revs up domain dispute engine.
Allstate Insurance Company has filed 19 individual UDRP cases in one day.
The 19 cases are current pending compliance review at World Intellectual Property Organization and mostly cover typos. Examples include allostate.com, allsrate.com, and allstaye.com. Other domain names include various financial and insurance products such as allstatefinance.com and allstateglassclaims.com.
These new filings are on top of 15 other filings the company has made since the middle of December, bringing the total number of cases filed in the past six weeks to 34.
Prior to that AllState hadn’t filed a case since three cases in March 2010, and before that had filed just one case since 2003.

Maybe in the registrars were legally forced to self-police, the UDRP process wouldn’t be necessary.

Can’t blame a company for taking these names. Its obvious they are being squatted.
