They paid millions in salary every year to just the top execs. every one of them who leaves saves a quarter of a million dollars a year. Read their retracted IPO filing. They expected people like me to not be upset enough to take them to the mat. I pray that they do not file bankruptcy and hope they pay much more than ten million for violating my trademarks and copyright after they knew that I was distressed. They involved a lawyer first. Esquire Erik Zilinek advised me that they considered their cybersquatting and would be allowed by a tribunal in spite of my common law TM. NameMedia has been cybersquatted on two of my domains since the first year after Esquire Zilinek passed the bar exam. Visit NameMedias.com at the link above to see a bit about the case.
