Скачать или смотреть Domain Dispute Masterclass (#12): What is the URS (Uniform Rapid Suspension System)?

In episode number 12 of the GigaLaw masterclass on domain name disputes, attorney Doug Isenberg explains the Uniform Rapid Suspension System (URS) and how it differs from the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP).

As Doug explains, the URS is in many ways quite similar to the UDRP, starting with almost the same three-part test.

However, the URS offers some advantages over the UDRP, including lower fees and quicker decisions. On the other hand, the URS has some significant drawbacks, including that it applies primarily only to the "new" gTLDs and not to .com, .net, and .org; and that it only allows a trademark owner to obtain the temporary suspension (not the transfer) of a disputed domain name.

In the video, Doug also discusses many other details on the URS and explains why it has never proven to be a popular domain name dispute policy.
