I should point out that I have absolutely nothing to do with plasticbag.de, that I think it is an amazing site, and that I didn’t know it existed until after I bought plasticbag.org. Otherwise – perhaps – I would have spent another eight months trying to decide on a suitable domain name.
Not that it would have mattered much, it seems, since at any point I can be defrauded of my domain name without the slightest possibility for recompense. Or at least this is how it appears at the moment: “Sex.com Wasn’t Stolen” [wired.com]
