Rick Schwartz, the de facto Domain King, reclaimed his Twitter handle after someone else registered it in February.
Rick’s return to social media wasn’t motivated by any willingness to start posting on Twitter – far from that.
In his own words, the Domain King attributed his repossession of @DomainKing to brand protection:
“Getting my @DomainKing moniker back wasn’t motivated by getting back on @twitter to post but protecting my #brand & name. Simple as that. I still believe #SocialMedia is dangerous. Too dangerous to have your name floating around the Twitter universe & not controlling it. #Domains”
Smart thinking, Rick! Welcome back to Twitter!
Twitter had no role in getting my trademarked handle back.
Just for the record.
Rick – Did you sue them?
