===Domain Issues===

In November of 2009, Apple filed a complaint with ICANN Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy ([[UDRP]]) against Daniel Bijan, a producer, singer, and entrepreneur based in Los Angeles who owned 16 domains that were confusingly similar to Apple's trademarks. Apple argued that Bijan registered and used the domain names in [[Bad Faith|bad faith]]. Bijan did not respond to Apple's complaint and the UDRP awarded the 16 domains under dispute which include:

In November, 2011, a registrant agreed to hand over 7 sexually explicit domains that used terms like "iPhone 4s" in the domains, which redirected to pornography sites. Apple filed a complaint with [[WIPO]], and subsequently terminated the case when the defendant agreed to transfer ownership of the questionable names to Apple.<ref>[http://domainnamewire.com/2011/11/22/apple-gets-control-over-porn-domain-names/ Apple Gets Control Over Porn Domain Names, DomainNameWire.com]</ref>
