Question 1

It is difficult for the legal system to apply trademark law in settling domain name issues. Explain.

Accepted Answer

The use of trademark law to deal with domain disputes has resulted in many complications, since the two concepts may be closely related but are quite distinct.
Trademarks are limited in availability, and not all words or marks are available to be registered - this is the key difference between trademarks and domain names. Domain names are by nature unique, can only be held by one owner, and do not need to conform to trademark legislation, as they can take any form.
For example, surnames such as Smith and general descriptive words such as coffee are not able to be registered as trademarks under the Canadian Trade-marks Act, however and individual or organization could register the associated domain names - smith.com, coffee.ca, etc.
