Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is an example of typosquatting, which is the act of registering a domain name that is a misspelling of a popular brand or website in order to redirect traffic to a different site or to profit from the traffic through advertising revenue. It is not considered cybersquatting because Ross did not register a domain name that is identical to a trademarked brand. Similarly, it is not trademark infringement because Ross is not using the trademarked name itself. Lastly, it is not trademark dilution because Ross's use of the misspelled domain name is unlikely to blur or tarnish the famous brand's distinctiveness or reputation.
