In the Southern District of Florida, Dell filed suit against three domain registrars, ten John Does, and a gentleman who goes by the name of JP Vasquez. Dell alleges that these defendants were involved in a domain tasting network that registered and used over sixty-four million domain names. According to John Levine and Jay Westerdal, these three registrars have been responsible for about 72.5% of the 255 million domains tasted in the past six months and have the most egregious history of domain churning.

Just came across this story on SEOmoz, this case looks quite interesting and could have far reaching implications on domain tasting and trademark violations by those who registers domains with trademarked words or misspelled domains.
