Rochester Institute of Technology Gives RITBook.com “Final Demands”
RIT’s “Final Demands”
The Chief Legal Officer has finally contacted me (10 days later then they said they would). He says these are the terms I must comply to:
- I am only allowed to use ritbook.com until registration expires or December 31, 2007; Whichever is earlier. Registration ends December 7, 2007.
- I can use of ritbook.com solely for the purpose of redirecting users to the new website, which I need to have in place by June 30, 2007
- I have to tell them what domain I am registering before I register it, so that “I won’t infringe again”.
- I cannot use ritbook.com in any advertising.
I have no problem with “demands” #2 and #3, but it’s #1 and mostly #4 that I’m not going to comply with. I did agree with them to changing the name - I registered a new domain 2 days ago; it’s name will not be publicly disclosed yet.
