registrars.</p> <p>The move comes as part of a long-running dispute over cybersquatting. Indian courts and cybersquatting victims are frustrated that registrars are not responding to their take-down notices. Some registrars are seemingly asking that plaintiffs get a U.S. court order rather than one from India.</p> <p>Attorney Ankur Raheja, who frequently acts as a Respondent’s representative in UDRP cases, noted today that five registrars’ websites are not accessible through a few Indian ISPs at this time: Dynadot, Namecheap, Tucows, Sarek and Gransy. The first three are among the top 15 largest domain registrars, although Tucows mostly sells domains through resellers.</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">In terms of the

Has anyone ever tried litigating in Indian Courts ? DON’T !. Unless you only want to win for sake of your heir’s in 30 years. As for decisions, the decisions of UK Court’s is abysmal as they seem to take on Judges with ZERO experience in the field that<br /> is being litigated. Back to the story. Well again, try and enforce a US or UK Court Order or Judgment in India. You have not got a chance. Yet the Indian Court’s expect One Way traffic.</p> <p>I think it is very good that Registrars are asking for US Orders. That is way things work anyway in my knowledge. (1) You get Court Order. (2) You Then apply to the Court in<br /> the Country you wish to enforce Order in , to Verify the Order and then issue an Order allowing Foreign/Order or Judgement to be enforced. THAT is always how it has worked<br /> for Decades. Just because subject matter is Domains make’s no difference, but clearly India is not happy. Tough !.</p> <div class='jetpack-comment-likes-widget-wrapper jetpack-likes-widget-unloaded' id='like-comment-wrapper-2678688-2278172-67b2bab540c15' data-src='https://widgets.wp.com/likes/#blog_id=2678688&comment_id=2278172&origin=domainnamewire.com&obj_id=2678688-2278172-67b2bab540c15' data-name='like-comment-frame-2678688-2278172-67b2bab540c15'> <div class='likes-widget-placeholder comment-likes-widget-placeholder comment-likes'><span class='loading'>Loading...</span></div> <div class='comment-likes-widget jetpack-likes-widget comment-likes'><span class='comment-like-feedback'></span><span class='sd-text-color'></span><a class='sd-link-color'></a></div> </div> </div> <div class="comment-reply"><a rel="nofollow" class="comment-reply-link" href="#comment-2278172" data-commentid="2278172" data-postid="77493" data-belowelement="article-comment-2278172" data-respondelement="respond" data-replyto="Reply to JohnUK" aria-label="Reply to JohnUK">Reply</a></div> </article> <ul class="children"> <li class="comment odd alt depth-2" id="comment-2278176"> <article id="article-comment-2278176"> <header class="comment-header"> <p class="comment-author"> <img alt='' src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%2048%2048'%3E%3C/svg%3E" data-lazy-srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/f8ef775498f0a61aef9495d407b7ff81?s=96&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-48 photo' height='48' width='48' decoding='async' data-lazy-src="https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/f8ef775498f0a61aef9495d407b7ff81?s=48&d=mm&r=g"/><noscript><img alt='' src='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/f8ef775498f0a61aef9495d407b7ff81?s=48&d=mm&r=g' srcset='https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/f8ef775498f0a61aef9495d407b7ff81?s=96&d=mm&r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-48 photo' height='48' width='48' decoding='async'/></noscript><span class="comment-author-name">MARK GONSA</span> <span class="says">says</span> </p> <p class="comment-meta"><time class="comment-time"><a class="comment-time-link" href="https://domainnamewire.com/2023/03/12/indian-isps-block-access-to-major-domain-registrars/#comment-2278176">March 12, 2023 at 10:00 pm</a></time></p> </header> <div class="comment-content"> <p>These are pretty sh*tty domain companies anyway.

infringing etc then that should be addressed in the court of the country where the domain registrar is located like as always before. The u.s is not the worlds policeman. As well if Im not mistaken the U.S does no longer have complete control over the entire Internet system like it once did Punishing an entire registry and all subsequent domain owners who have may have domains at that registry seems legally questionable and way over the top. As well it may be possible for individual domainers those who own domains at these registrars to be able to counter sue the indian courts and these rogue ISP’s who are attempting to block ALL of the traffic instead of using a specific DNS filter. I think Indian Internet service providers may well could be sued for a blanket block like this of ALL traffic from a specific registrar. Does anyone know the names of the “cybersquatting” domains in question? I am very interested in this story and would<br /> like to hear more when details are available</p> <div class='jetpack-comment-likes-widget-wrapper jetpack-likes-widget-unloaded'
