Last month, for example, it first asked for, then was granted, control of iphone5.com, a domain that was used to host a discussion forum devoted to smartphones.
Although a WHOIS search conducted at the time Apple was awarded iphone5.com
put the domain in the hands of Corporation Service Company (CSC), a
Delaware legal, business and financial firm that offers domain
protection and recovery services, a similar search Sunday showed that it
is now registered to Apple itself.
In November 2011, the company was also successful in a bid to acquire iphone4s.com and seven other URLs, all with the "iphone" name, and several of which included phrases such as "porn," "sex" and "xxx."
