however in this list of 155+ domains, 55 domains include the specific trademark "arduino" and a couple sets with confusing names: "arduinum" and "arduinista."

based on the recent announcement these should transfer to arduino.cc

putting this up here so other folks can keep an eye and tune in. we emailed arduino.org regarding this, no reply.

More than half of those have nothing remotely similar.
Not sure what you are trying to imply ?

You might want to edit that list to a more suitable one rather than throwing random things in to pad it out.

i think he is saying that someone involved with arduino bought up a lot of domain names... and apparently that means something,

whoop dee doo...and some of them were redundant anyway such as the tinkerkit (defunkt).

Least it got moved to BAR SPORT where it deserves to be !

55 domains include the specific trademark "arduino" ...
based on the recent announcement these should transfer to arduino.cc

Surely the correct thing is for some of those DNS names to just 'disappear'?
I don't see a need for two-dozen variants of "arduino workshop, in Italian", for example.
Apparently most of these were established in 2015, and don't expire till 2020. (GoDaddy must have had a sale!)
(Hmm. Some are quite a bit older than that.)
So I'd say these are not "new malfeasance", and not really a priority to fix. Manu look to have been created back when things were friendlier, probably just to prevent "others" from grabbing the names.

"Cybersquatting" of trademark-containing DNS entries is generally frowned upon, and there are policies in place to get this sort of thing fixed. But ... there are more important things to do...
