Battle Over Sex Domain Name
Gary Kremen was one step ahead when he registered the domain sex.com in 1994. Cohen made a fortune out of the sex web address, was taken to court and has been fighting for the money for over ten years. A report in the Sunday Times established that it is possible for owned property online to be as valuable as tangible assets - and this case has highlighted the importance of domain registration. Millions of dollars were lost on the Court Cases, gunfights, forgery and missing bank accounts were involved.
