Comment on Ask HN: Is a .net domain good enough?parent

Comments

You would think that being successful makes it harder to get the domain back, since the squatter knows the real stakes.

What are the legal grounds for "lawyering" him into releasing the domain?

I guess Dropbox ended up taking legal action against dropbox.com when they started placing ads for Dropbox's competitors. As a result, the domain holder ended up handing the domain over (no mention of purchase in the article).
