The Null Device

Justice in action: Some time ago, Tom Bourke registered the domain baa.com, dedicated to "sheep and woolly resources". A few months ago, the British Airports Authority sued him to take over the domain. Now, unable to pay the legal costs of standing up to corporate bullies (expected to be £100,000 by the conclusion of the case), he has settled, handing it over. The moral of this story: if someone with more lawyers than you wants your domain, it's theirs.
