Woman Sued for Registering 10000 Domains
By: Anjali Rego   |   Sep 15, 2007

Zheng Qingying, a Chinese woman, was recently sued by Eurid, an institution in charge of domain name registration in Europe, because she registered over 10,000 domain names with the suffix “.eu.”

According to the relevant rules and regulations, any individual or organization in any European Union country may register an unlimited number of domain names with the “.eu” suffix.

However, the huge number of names registered by Qingying aroused suspicion from Eurid, because no company is large enough to require that many names. All the domain names registered by Zheng are now frozen and she is presently incapable of selling or transferring any of them.

In response to these actions, Zheng filed a counter suit, requiring Eurid to release all her domain names. The lawsuit filed by Zheng is to be heard next week, while the one filed by Eurid is expected at least one year later.

The domain suffix of “.eu” was put into use in December 2005. There are currently more than 2.5 million websites using this suffix.
