I don't see how it signifies anything - it's just one decision.

My point was that a matter was successfully brought under the RPMs (my point would stand for matters unsuccessfully brought under the RPMs). That cybersquatting exists is not in dispute. Nor is it our—or ICANN’s—job to cause cybersquatting to no longer exist. The matter was a URS, which was a new-to-new-gTLDs RPM and (supposedly) cheaper than the UDRP.

If this does not signify that RPMs work, does it signify that they do not?

Agree with Doug and Marc, I would be curious to understand the thinking further.

Also, it will be interesting to see what happens to all of these names when the suspension period is over.

Agreed. How does one large URS filling indicate that the RPMs are working?

As the author of the blog post that Phil shared, I disagree with Reg’s conclusion below (and am quite unsure how that conclusion was reached).  This URS case is interesting because its size makes it unusual (and, indeed, unprecedented).  It is not indicative of any trend about RPMs in general or the URS in particular.  If anything, it is a reminder that there are many domain name registrants – even in the new gTLDs –  who continue to engage in cybersquatting on a large-scale, despite the RPMs such as the URS.

Sincerely yours,

Which seems to indicate that the current RPMs are working.
