Line 18: − − − ==Intel and ICANN== − On January 26, 2010, Intel expressed its disappointment regarding the [[Special Trademark Issues]] Working Team (STI) Report on Trademark Protection on New [[gTLD]]s. The company was disappointed that many of the strategies recommended by the prior [[Implementation Recommendation Team]] (IRT) were not incorporated into the STI Team's report or a draft of the [[Applicant Guidebook|applicant guidebook]]. They note that the IRT's recommendations effectively created a system of inter-working mechanisms that included a globally protected marks list, and that by leaving them out in the STI report the effectiveness of any one measure was severely compromised. Intel urged [[ICANN]] to reconsider incorporating some of the IRT recommendations. Meanwhile, Intel acknowledged the benefits of a [[Trademark Clearinghouse]] as necessary protection tool for trademarks. The company suggested that its use and scope be expanded and that it should be during new gTLD pre-launch, and during [[UDRP|Uniform Rapid Suspension System]] (URSS) and [[Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy]] (UDRP) proceedings for all TLDs, including existing ones. The also wanted information submitted to the Trademark Clearinghouse to be shared to [[Registry|registries]] and [[Registrar|registrars]] solely for the purpose of supporting RPM procedures, unless otherwise authorized by trademark owners. Intel believed that fees to submit trademarks to the Trademark Clearing House should be minimal. Regarding the URS process, Intel agrees that it will be a beneficial tool as long as the process is made less expensive and quicker.<ref>[http://forum.icann.org/lists/sti-report-2009/msg00068.html Intel Corporation Comments on STI Report]</ref> Line 31:

On October 13 1999, Scott B. Schwartz, Intel Corporation's Senior Attorney for Trademarks & Brands, provided comments regarding the Accompanying Rules, and Provider of [[ICANN]]'s Draft [[UDRP]]. Schwartz commented that ICANN demonstrated a positive advancement towards the protection of trademarks in cyberspace by posting the UDRP to its website; he believed, however, that certain sections needed revision, including:
* '''Section 4(a)(iii)'''- the word "and" which appears between "registered" and "is" is recommended to be stricken and replaced with the word "or" so it would read like this: ''your domain name has been registered or is being used in bad faith.'' Schwartz explained that the recommendation was made so as to clear situations where alleged warehousing are considered to be "Applicable Disputes." He emphasized that cybersquatters are increasingly registering famous trademarks in bulk without creating active websites. He also explained that the current provision is not consistent with provisions of 4(b) which states that ''registration of a mark can be in bad faith and, therefore, subject to the policy.''
