Steven Escobar Founder and Owner of Diversity News Magazine files for name and domain trademark.
Los Angeles, California Jul 16, 2021 (Issuewire.com) – Diversity News Media Brands formerly Diversity News Publications publisher of Diversity News Magazine Org and Diversity News Magazine Dot Com files for Diversity News Magazine Dot Com trademark with the USPTO. Mr. Esteban Escobar aka Steven Escobar who is the owner and founder of Diversity News Magazine Dot Com files for company name and domain trademark.
The main reasons why Mr. Escobar during 2019 was not able to pay his renewal fees to GoDaddy was due to financial hardship and litigation expenses. When Mr. Escobar was ready to renew GoDaddy had sold the domain to a guy overseas from Pakistan who is a domain squatter. Immediately Mr. Escobar registered the domain name Diversity News Magazine Org while consulting with his colleagues and friends on ways to get back his Diversity News Magazine Dot com domain. Mr. Escobar was advised to trademark his domain name.
For your information, the domain squatter will first perform searches on the availability of domain names, which include business names, brand names, trademark names, or anything he or she feels will be valuable to the company willing to pay for. If it’s available, the individual buys the domain name, with the intent of selling it at a higher price to the owner of the business or the brand.
For those who does not know what Cybersquatting means, it means the practice of registering names, especially well-known company or brand names, as internet domains, in the hope of reselling them at a profit.
So after purchasing the domain, the Pakistan domain squatter man contacted Mr. Escobar asking to give him access to his Gmail account and all his social media accounts. This Pakistan middle east man offered Mr. Escobar $100 US Dollars for all his social media profile pages. This Pakistan domain squatter did purchase Diversity News Magazine Dot com because he has read that Mr. Escobar needed money so he tried to Cybersquatting Mr. Escobar by asking him to sale all his social media profile accounts including Gmail for $100 US dollars. Mr. Escobar very well knows that his social media pages are worth more than $100 US dollars in fact he knows some of his pages are worth thousands of dollars.
Domain squatting is illegal. A domain squatter is blocking the rightful owner of the trademark or brand from acquiring the domain name and using it to increase his or her internet visibility.
The law looks at domain squatting as similar to holding a property (the domain name) in order to raise ransom, and it is considered a trademark infringement. If a domain squatter can’t prove a legal intent in owning the domain name, it is considered to be a bad faith registration, and he or she is considered guilty of domain squatting.
For those who does not know what Cybersquatting means, it means the practice of registering names, especially well-known company or brand names, as internet domains, in the hope of reselling them at a profit. The Pakistani guy would contact Mr. Escobar via Facebook and Twitter. One time the Pakistan man asked Mr. Escobar to buy back Diversity News Magazine Dot Com from him for a higher price.
Mr. Escobar has been keeping an eye on his domain and because he keeps getting emails from former readers, partners and colleagues asking if he is still in charge of Diversity News Magazine Dot Com.

“The website is not hosted by GoDaddy. We ask that you please note the following information:
The registrar is the company that sells a domain name registration to a person or company.
The registrant is the person or company that purchases a domain name for use.
The hosting provider is the company that provides space on its computers for the files that make up the content of the website.
Name servers do not determine the hosting provider of a website. Website content is not stored on name servers.
While GoDaddy offers services as both a registrar and a hosting provider, this does not mean that we provide both services for every domain that is registered through our company.
If you first identify the IP address of the website, you can then find the hosting provider that IP address is assigned to. In most cases, this is a much more accurate method for determining who is hosting a website. You’ll want to reach out to the hosting provider that the IP address is assigned to for further assistance with this content based issue
Also, our internal policies, as well as ICANN regulations, prevent us from acting as the arbiter of domain name disputes. We are not able to assist you with claims regarding the wording of a registered domain name.
Complaints of this nature need to be taken up with the domain name owner directly, or should be filed in a UDRP or court proceeding.
