"I bought the website Trump.org. Then Donald Trump came after me."


If you enjoyed the New York Times response to a Trump cease & desist letter, then you might like this article about a domain name registrant who was threatened by Trump.

"The legal threats were empty, because I never intended to use the site to profit from Trump’s name. Instead, my use of the domain was for a noncommercial opinionated “gripe site” about Trump. There’s legal precedent in favor of gripe-site owners over trademark holders."
