Comment Missed crucial points RE: How to incite a riot (Score 1) 465
Good coverage but you missed two big points that might sway the vote. (Election time. Cheesy, I know.)
This issue originally evolved around the Respondent having registered Guinness.com (can the class say "cybersquatting"?) and losing that domain to Guinness. Respondent then registers GuinnessSucks.com and variations in retaliation. Guinness learns of the GuinnessSucks.com and variations and files a complaint with the WIPO. August 25, 2000 the Respondent is sent (e-mail, fax and snail-mail) a "Notification of Complaint and Commencement of Administrative Proceedings" and that "the Respondent was required to submit a Response to the Center on or before September 13, 2000." No response was received and on September 25, 2000 the Respondent was sent Notification of Respondent Default.
To summerize: If you don't even bother to field a team on game day, you are assured only one outcome. Bemoan the fact that the "Respondent" couldn't be troubled to not even contest the complaint, not that Guinness won.

To summerize further: Two wrongs don't make a right, but three lefts do.
