Re: Devinn Lane Files Suit Against Vivid, Digital Playground, Others
Quote:
It begs the question - is a domain name an absolute indication of "the is star names site"? Further, if you have a pornstar fan site, (say pornstarnamexxx.com) and you run a webmaster affiliate program, pornstarnamecash.com, and clearly state that this is NOT the official pornstar site just a fan site / cash program) at what point have you limited that star's rights to her name? After all, she signed away in the model releases the use of her name, image, likeness, etc for pretty much all purposes. I can understand going after squatters, but somewhere along the line it conflicts with the rights she has granted to others (which may include the rights to transfer or re-grant those rights to others). It's not as easy as the lawyer types would like us to think.

This is very true - but I suppose at this point, all we can do is wait and see what precedent is set.
