I should have protected myself in full. Although I'm really
not sure yet if I'm the one who infringed. I see when I do
a sear for my site a DMCA notice that looks like it's in a
process. I'm worried.I thought the name was original and I
should have copy writed it. It's a Scientific name.
It's Sunday and Monday is a Holiday so I cannot do anything
until Tuesday. Can someone give me an idea if I have any
right if I registered a domain name before someone decided
to copyright my idea. I know I will search the USPO and at
least apply for a copyright now but I imagine it's too
late. I've see a similar problem with someone take a
scientist idea and copyright his work and domain name. I
read some of the information about Network solutions Panel
and other boards. Basically if I had the domain name first
can some copyright the word I derived and make me loose the
name. I read they have to prove the information of mine was
a violation. I also read there are time constrants in the
processing of such claims. Any Lawyers out there had a case
like this. I'm not saying I'm the originator yet of the
name until I see the date of the copyright. What are my
rights?
