  • An arbitrator with the National Arbitration Forum has awarded 32 Google-related domain names.Google submitted a complaint to the National Arbitration Forum on January 5,2012,asserting legal rights over the disputed domain names . The 32 domain names are : geoolge.com,gggoogle.com,ggolge.com,ggoole.com,go0gle.com,gogelmail.com,goggleemail.com, gogglemails.com, gologle.com, googemail.com, googer.com, googlae.com, googlecalander.com, googlede.com, googledevice.com, googleen.com, googlehomepage.com, googleparking.net, googlepictures.com, googletr.com, , googlp.com, googlse.com, googlu.com, googne.com, googole.com, googu.com, goolggle.com, goolgle.com, goolglemail.com, gooogly.com, and gougle.com.

    Google owns many trademark registrations for the "Google" mark all over the world,including in China with the State Intellectual Property Office (SIPO).Therefore,it is more than obvious that the disputed domain names are confusingly similar to its trademark.

    The company contended in the complaint that the respondent registered and used the disputed domain names in bad faith :

    "Complainant asserts that the , , , , , , , , , , and domain names domain names are disruptive. Complainant contends that the , , , , , , , , , , and domain names are used to display pay-per-click links. Though Complainant does not argue that these links are competitive, the screenshots Complainant provides demonstrates that the links offer goods and services similar to those which Complainant offers under the GOOGLE mark. "

    Respondent failed to submit a Response in this proceeding.

    The Panel ordered the disputed domain names to be transferred from the respondent to the complainant .
