In Petroliam Nasional Berhad (Petronas) v. GoDaddy.com, Inc., Case No: 12-15584 (U.S. Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit, order entered December 4, 2013), the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit held that neither the plain text of the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, nor its legislative history or goals supported a cause of action for contributory cybersquatting. In so holding, the appeals court affirmed a federal district court’s ruling in favor of a domain registrar sued by a trademark owner offended by the use of its mark in a domain name associated with adult content.
