Monica Riva Talley, director at the intellectual property law firm Sterne, Kessler, Goldstein & Fox, P.L.L.C., discusses the unregulated domain .bit and why brands need to pay attention to this “Wild West of the Internet.” As Ms. Talley explains, ‘.bit’ is unlike any customary domain and presents several areas of concern for intellectual property owners including cybersquatting, the use of pirated content, and the absence of oversight or control by any regulatory entity.
