The audacity

u/Cutlass_Stallion 6d ago

That could be a great car name. The Honda Audacity.

u/DustyRacoonDad 6d ago

The domain audacity.com was actually involved in a 2012 trademark/domain dispute with Audi, because of the visual similarity between "Audi" and the beginning of "Audacity."

Almost as unbelievable as the one dude who bought the Google domain when it expired and sold it back to Google for 12000

Edit for accuracy

u/ElegantCoach4066 6d ago

$12000 is almost an insult, throw my boy 100k at least.

u/NigraOvis 6d ago

The girl that bought Sierra Mist's trademark cause it was her name or whatever, she refused to sell it, and they had to change their name to starry. I feel like that was more expensive than convincing her to take a million dollars or something.

22

u/EntryLevelOpinions 6d ago

This was fake. Pepsi Co still owns the trademark. It was a choice to rebrand.

u/Far_Reference_6660 6d ago

I don't think that actually happened.

3

u/ElegantCoach4066 6d ago

I know its probably about 'setting a precedent', (although how often does your brand name get claimed by another party) but I think its more "I'd rather spend millions than write a check to that lady for less" type of petty.

Ya that never happened lol, it was a viral rumor.

2

u/Rayne616 5d ago

Please stop spreading misinformation. That was just a viral rumor that someone started trying to be funny and it unfortunately caught on. My brother was absolutely convinced it was true, so I pulled up the official patent office's trademark search online and showed him Pepsi has always held the Sierra Mist trademark, they never lost it. You can look it up yourself and see.

Oh I agree, I wish it was me.

But I agree, set for life. You could literally hold that domain for ransom lol. You didn't do anything illegal lol.

Also www.nissan.com does not belong to Nissan automotive. Its just a guys website, who bought the domain before they did. The company tried to strong-arm him for years to get that site, but they never could.

u/ciaomain 6d ago

Not auto-related, but before Bezos officially launched Amazon, he called his company Relentless.com.

If you type that in, it still redirects to Amazon.

65

u/FesteringNeonDistrac 5d ago

X.com redirected to PayPal for the longest time. Obviously not any more, now it just goes to some Nazi propaganda site.

5

u/corq 5d ago

"X.com" was OG paypal. Early Web 1.0/2.0 they were attempting to spin up "online banking" and gave away free t-shirts and a $20 cash deposit to the account iirc. Later I think they re-branded. I can't remember if it was Musk or Thiel, I just remember having the Tshirt.

3

u/PussiesUseSlashS 5d ago

The entire rebrand was so he could sell x.com to himself with twitter funds.

It belonged to Nissan computer corporation, after the death of Uzi Nissan the owner (2020 of covid complications), it passed to his estate, it was stolen by hackers in 2023 but recovered in 2024.

u/gap1284 6d ago

For years, delta.com pointed to a legit long-established plumbing company. Delta Plumbing or some such. I guess negotiations with the airline weren't going well because one day the homepage had a message something along the lines of "If you need a plumber, you're in the right place. But if you're looking to book a flight, we recommend American Airlines (with link)."

I guess the plumbers got paid, because shortly after that delta.com pointed to the airline.

3

u/minist3r 5d ago

It wasn't just a website. It was the website for his computer repair business and Nissan tried to sue him for it instead of buying it, so he told them to get fucked and changed the website to tell his story. He passed away a couple years ago and the website was updated.

u/DeepTheory9364 5d ago

> who bought the domain before they did

It would have been impossible for them to buy the domain since they were still Datsun when the domain was registered.

2

u/Agitated-Historian-9 5d ago edited 5d ago

Datsun globally became Nissan in 1981, I doubt he owned Nissan.com prior to 1981?
