Detik reported that Sony corp sent a sommation* letter to a blogger named Sony, for using sony-ak.com for his domain name. Now the blogosphere strikes back at Sony and organize a facebook group called 'Sony -- don't take away my friend's name'.


Will the wisdom of the crowd(ed) facebook beat Sony corp and its lawyers? We shall see.

Shall we name our cats Google and assign a domain name for it?

* I am not sure how to translate the term. There is 'Abmahnung' in German and 'Sommation' in French. Is Cease and Desist the equivalent common law concept?
