October 21, 2019 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

PALM BEACH, FL - The US's answer to European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), enacted in 2018, will create new consumer rights relating to the access to, deletion of, and sharing of personal information that is collected by businesses.

Lawyer Says Domain Name Investors Are “Hijacking and Ransoming Domains”

October 15, 2019 By John Colascione 8 Comments

PALM BEACH, FL – This is an interesting topic by itself, although I covered something very much like it just the other day in "Panels Consistently Find That 'Domain Investing' Is Legitimate Bona Fide Offering". A lawyer named Tamara Kurtzman wrote an article that appeared on the website of the American Bar Association which details her opinion that “Domain Name Investing” should really be considered “Domain Name Hoarding” and labeled as “Anticipatory … [Read more...]

‘Pointless’ Concern Could Become Domain Investor ‘Reality’ in AU Top Level Domain

April 13, 2019 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

WEST PALM BEACH – Back in 2017, I wrote about the likelihood of growing regulation aimed at domain names; the article was titled, “Could Domain Investing Industry End with Legal Provision for Domain Hoarding”. That writing stirred some discussion, with one domainer going as far as considering such a possibility as ‘pointless’ or as he put it, “like planning for when an asteroid hits your house”. Well, such pointless concern is exactly what is being considered by AuDA (the … [Read more...]

Attorney Suggests UDRP Process as “Clear Cut”, “Quick” and “Relatively Inexpensive”

October 29, 2018 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

NEW YORK, NY – If you’ve been keeping a watchful eye on UDRP cases lately, you’ve likely noticed some real over-reaching land grabs in action, especially those based on three character acronyms, and like me, have been watching is disappointment. I’ve always said that one of the greatest challenges in the domain space in coming years will be growing regulation and corporate theft by those who seek to own the assets of others; assets they did not have foresight to acquire … [Read more...]

Will Internet Remain Safe Place to Invest and Conduct Business in Years to Come?

May 5, 2018 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

NEW YORK – Back in 2016, the ICA, (The Internet Commerce Association) asked me a very important question; they asked what I thought would be some of the biggest challenges the domain industry would face in the coming years. While some might answer that question with suggestions about the difficulties new gTLDs may bring toward branding, or monetization strategies with domain parking from declining CPCs, my answer was likely very - very different than most domainers. This … [Read more...]

Publication with Intent to Deceive; Where Does the Wild Wild West Draw the Line?

February 23, 2018 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

NEW YORK, NY - First of all, I am the last one that wants to create more rules and regulations for the Internet. As a publisher of both print and digital assets, I value greatly the right to free speech and the freedom of expression, but a problem is brewing out there and it is brewing right before us. It's a pretty serious problem and one that reveals itself as a combination of fake news and what I would consider publication with intent to deceive. Let me explain... We … [Read more...]

Here Come the Feds: EBay Warns Affiliate Marketers, Bloggers of “FTC Crack-Down”

June 12, 2017 By John Colascione Leave a Comment

NEW YORK, NY - EBay sent out an email update warning members that they need to be aware of regulations regarding disclosures on products and services they market and that these disclosures must be more prominent than ever. No longer is a disclosure statement valid if it merely appears buried at the bottom of a post; they’ve got to be clear, conspicuous, and even “unavoidable” to be compliant. Here are some very interesting takeaways from what I am seeing: Disclosures … [Read more...]
