Anti-cybersquatting Protection Act Aims to End Cybersquatting

The newly introduced Anti-cybersquatting Protection Act aims to end cybersquatting on the Internet. The ACPA and UDRP both have goals to help trademark owner’s retrieve domains that infringe on the trademarks, but the ACPA goes on “bad faith”. This means that even if you do not have a trademark (such as a celebrity name), you can lose the name if you registered it in “bad faith”.
