Internet Word of the Day
cybersquatting
The practice of purchasing a domain name that contains a well-known trademark or commercial name (for example, generalelectric.com). The intent is not to develop it into a Web site but rather to sell it to the rightful owner for a big profit. This practice is being contested in various legal battles, and for the most part, the company wins, not the cybersquatter.
