except if some IPR enforcement firm notices that you mistyped your home 
address when registering it.

In any case, I suppose that the court could order the registry or the 
registrar to deactivate the domain, assuming that they fell under its 
jurisdiction, right?

Also, I think that this case proves once more that collective regulation 
of anti-spam practices is urgently necessary - where "collective" means 
"done not only by engineers", and "regulation" does not necessarily 
imply coercion, could mean agreed best practices that are voluntarily 
followed by everyone.

Is there anything planned to happen about anti-spam practices at the IGF?
