Apple has claimed eight domain names being used to direct iPhone-curious surfers to mobile porn sites, the original registrant handing over the URLs in return for the Cupertino company dropping a World Intellectual Property Organization complaint. Domains including “sex4iphones.com” and “iphoneporn4s.com” had been registered by an unnamed Israeli company and directed to a variety of mobile-formatted smut, something Apple understandably wasn’t pleased with.
Apple’s legal team filed a WIPO complaint in early November, demanding the eight URLs be handed over. Details on the negotiations are scant, but the original registrant apparently agreed to turn over the domains – which are now being managed by MarkMonitor, an “enterprise brand protection” specialist – if Apple would dismiss its complaint.
Interestingly, the iPhone4S.com domain was originally registered back in August 2008, with the owner obviously – and correctly – predicting Apple’s nomenclature patterns. Note, some or all of these domains still resolve to NSFW content at time of writing:
- iphonecamforce.com
- iphonecam4s.com
- iphoneporn4s.com
- iphonesex4s.com
- iphonexxxforce.com
- iphone4s.com
- porn4iphones.com
- sex4iphones.com
