What's perhaps worse in all this is that the domain name could probably have been bought through diplomatic negotiations; everyone has their price.
Where I live (Washington's Olympic Peninsula), there are numerous businesses containing the name "Olympic" (naturally). When Congress granted the USOC exclusive use of the word "Olympic", these businesses were allowed to continue using the term in their names, subject to certain restrictions. The USOC is particularly vigilant in protecting their mark, sometimes to the point of apparent bullying.
I guess the point is, there's nothing clearcut about trademark law. Programming is way less complicated!
