# It's bad,
but the worst bit is that they will protect "your" domains. So if someone else is using a domain which you, as a large corporation, quite fancy, then you can get them to threaten the domain owner with legal threats until they "give it back" to you and probably get them to pay your legal costs too.
They cite elvispresely.com as an example. For a start, Elvis is dead. Elvis is also just a name. What if Elvis Presely of 23 Ocean View, Bournemouth registered that domain?
It just shows that large businesses and companies like Web Sheriff just don't understand the internet at all.
