Nissan treated that man very badly. I never owned a Nissan car, and never would because of this.

His family name was Nissan, and he registered the domain when Nissan still called itself "Datsun" in the U.S.A.

I wonder how much you could sell that to them for if you were really good at negotiating. Maybe as much as $100k?

Multiply that by a thousand or more if they had already accrued $10 million in "damages" by 1999 as they claimed. Apparently it would be extremely valuable to them.
