Against two letter domain Yu.com — UDRP filed

Are Yu serious?

A UDRP has been filed against the owner of the two letter domain name Yu.com.

The case was filed by Two Way NV/SA at World Intellectual Property Organization.

It’s unclear who owns the domain. It has been protected by Moniker whois privacy for the past two years. Prior to that it was protected by NameView privacy, which means there may be a connection to Kevin Ham. The most recent non private registration record I can find at DomainTools is a 2006 record for Yuki Morimoto.

I’ve run multiple searches on the complainant’s name and can’t find anything regarding it.

I’ll keep you posted on the results of the case.

In a separate “acronym” domain case just filed, Nvia Gestión de Datos S.L. filed a complaint against Marchex over NVIA.com
