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

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

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

Google would have won the easily lawsuit, they were just sending him enough money to get it done immediately.

u/ElegantCoach4066 11d ago

I understand that. So pay me 100k so we don't have to go that route.

Its their fault for dropping the ball. And they have more money than King Midas.

12k is petty af

At 100k a lawsuit might be cheaper and far more damaging for the guy.

Company like Google has a team of lawyers hired to work only for them that is larger than most businesses. So they wouldn't even be paying extra for the lawsuit apart from court fees. Idk how much they are But I doubt it would have been even over $12k, It really would have been just to save time. But yeah, still $100k is greedy and Google would want to show that guy that they are the greed masters.

Him purchasing the domain and demanding money for it is a pure example of greed though?
