Trademark Internet
 
The committee monitors and reports on significant developments in the area of trademarks and the internet. A major focus of the committee is the domain name administration system. The committee represents AIPLA's interests as a member of the Intellectual Property Constituency (IPC) of The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), and participates in various ICANN-related working groups, working closely with AIPLA's Executive Director. We also monitor and may become involved in internet-focused legislation that impacts trademark owners, as necessary. Other areas of interest include UDRP domain name dispute decisions and relevant case law developments, such as cases involving the use of others' trademarks in keyword-triggered search engine advertising.
