Who said there would be no cybersquatting in the new gTLD space?

Plenty of Google Glass typos were registered on the 1st day of general availability.

Interestingly all of the registrations are public not under privacy leading me to conclude that there are just a lot of new “domainers” who don’t know anything about the laws, rules and restrictions around domain names.

The new gTLD domain name goggle.glass was registered by someone in Ohio who used his real name.

The domains:

googl.glass

gogle.glass

Where both registered by someone in Minsk again not under privacy with presumably his real name

The domain name Google-apps.glass was registered by someone else in Texas also not under privacy.

Googlemaps.glass was registered by someone else in California

gooogle.glass was registered by someone in Michigan

thegoogle.glass was registered by someone in Indonesia.

Google did register one domain related to its product, Googleglass.glass

If your wondering why Google didn’t register Google.glass its on the restricted ICANN collision list so no one including Google could register it.

Of course Google isn’t the only company that got cybersquatted on in the .Glass space, here are a few more registrations that seem suspect at best:

snapchat.glass

superbowl.glass

tiffany.glass

yelp.glass

worldcup.glass
