That mind deserves the money.
Lota Bhai first got pwned by Elon Musk and then a kid. Give him a break
This is classic, David vs Goliath, of they had fulfilled his request, it would have gained them publicity and goodwill worth millions. But nooooo, they had to go this way, which if the guy fought even with a decent lawyer, he could drag this case for months, surpassing the launch date.
All he has to argue, bloody domain is his property, neither hotstar nor jio ever owned it, and he is not even using it for business.
Even if the court rules in favour of Reliance, they lose because of negative publicity
This. And I am surprised they are not getting this.
I don't think it is legal to own a domain that misleads to an existing company. Someone did the same before jio was officially launched in 2014-15. Thought it may seem smart, it is highly risky coz you never know what would happen if they move legally
It is legal, as you have not violated anyone’s trademark and there is no law stating otherwise.
No it's legal to own May not be legal to masquerade as a commercial entity
This is Cybersquatting. Beyond a point he won't get anything. Jio and Hotastar are both registered trademarks
Reliance is the most chindi company out there. They don't even pay their employees properly! I hope a lawyer takes stand for this guy. What he did is absolutely legal. Even Musk settled with a guy who had taken the @x account name in Twitter
Man used his brain 🧠💪💪
