“In our effort to redress the injuries inflicted on us we came to appreciate how undeveloped this area of the law is, and how victims of domain theft face an unmarked and totally uphill battle to get a remedy. Today’s sentencing helps to define a path for other victims and law enforcers to follow, and reinforces the likelihood that the theft of a domain can and will be prosecuted.” (July 22, 2011; Sentencing of Goncalves to 5 years in prison for stealing domain name)
– Albert Angel, Victim of Domain Theft in Goncalves Case as well as an Attorney and Former Dept. of Justice Prosecutor
