The paper is divided into five parts, in part; I will give a general introduction on domain names. In part II, I will examine the problem of cybersquatting and the solutions proposed on the national and international level. In part III, I will examine the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP). In part V, I will consider suck domain names and the complaints that have been brought in front of WIPO center. My preliminary examination will be to what extent free speech is allowed under the UDRP and the decisions of WIPO panellists. At the end of the paper, I will provide my own suggestions on how we can improve the UDRP and have better decisions that allow free speech on the internet. |

The purpose of the paper is to examine why we need criminal sanctions to deal with domain name disputes particularly in the case of typosquatting? Are the civil liabilities in the Anti Cyber Protection Act (ACPA) not enough to combat typosquatting? Do we need the Truth of Domain Name Act (TDNA)? My paper is divided into five parts, in part; I will give a general introduction on domain names disputes. In part II, I will define typosquatting and examine its importance. In part III, I will consider the TDNA and then in part IV the case of Zuccarini. In part V, I will consider the argument with and against having criminal sanctions to deal with typosquatting. My preliminary examination will be the TDNA and the sanctions it provides for typosquatting and to what extent they are effective enough in deterring children pornography over the internet. At the end of the paper, I will provide my own overall assessment and conclusion of the matter. |

In the past decade, the rapid growth of the Internet in recent years and the proliferation of Information Technologies (IT) are making a dramatic and profound impact on the way humans communicate, conduct business, and sell their goods and services. The new technology and techniques have transformed the business world, have generated new commercial models, and have presented the world economy with new challenges. Businesses, individuals and governments have all rushed to try to gain from the potential profits that the Internet offers. Although this rush has slowed down, after the burst of the (.Com) bubble enterprises, the endless possibilities are still there. |
