In the early days of the internet where companies had yet to hop onto the internet bandwagon and create an online presence for themselves, there were some opportunists who registered domain names belonging to companies which were eventually sold back to these companies for huge sums of money.

That is called cybersquatting, but in an interesting turn of events, a man from France is suing his government over the seizure of the France.com domain which he has owned since 1994, alleging that they are cybersquatting and “reverse domain-name hijacking”. Jean-Noël Frydman had purchased the domain back in the mid 1990s where it was used as a “digital kiosks” for Francophiles and Francophones living in the US.

Over the past couple of decades, Frydman built up a business around the domain and even worked with various official French agencies, such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who in 2015 filed a lawsuit against Frydman and seized the domain that he had owned for the past 24 years or so. The Paris Court of Appeals had ruled that France.com violated French trademark law.

However like we said, Frydman has since filed a lawsuit against the French government. According to the complaint he filed, “Defendants did not approach Plaintiff to purchase or license the domain, the trademark, or Plaintiff’s underlying business and goodwill. Instead, in 2015, Defendants misused the French judicial system to seize the domain from Plaintiff without compensation, under the erroneous theory that Defendants were inherently entitled to take the domain because it included the word ‘France.’”

There are many digital assistants in the market today, and obviously not all of them were created equal and according to a recent study conducted by Stone Temple, it seems that they have found that Google Assistant is the most accurate digital assistant amongst the competition, at least as far as this year is concerned.

The year is particularly important because companies do make changes and improvements over time, which means that it is possible for other companies to catch-up. That being said, Stone Temple’s study found that Google Assistant attempted to answer the most questions and at the same time gave the most correct answers overall.

What’s interesting is that Google Assistant on smartphones had a higher percentage of questions attempted and questions answered compared to Google Home. Also what’s interesting is that while many tend not to talk about Microsoft’s Cortana, it actually came in second place in their study.

Amazon’s Alexa came in third, while Apple’s Siri came in last, which isn’t surprising as many iPhone users have stated that Siri is one of Apple’s more lackluster services. While the survey is interesting and does seem to hint that Google Assistant is “better”, there are varying factors as to why someone might choose to adopt Siri over Google Assistant. This could include being locked into Apple’s ecosystem, or it could be a matter of price where the Amazon Echo Dot is cheaper than the competition and thus more preferred.
