> <i>A San Francisco judge awarded Pinterest $7.2 million in damages and legal fees</i> ... <i>against Qian Jin, a Chinese cybersquatter</i><p>Uhm... so that's a US judge awarding damages against a Chinese person. What does this translates to practically speaking? This guy won't be able to enter the US. What else? Will it be up to the domain registrar to comply with the US court decision? What if the registrar is not US-based?
It says "Order granting default judgement", does that mean that the guy didn't show up or have an attorney present to represent him? That sounds like he didn't try fighting the suit and Pinterest won by default (same thing happens civil suits when the defendant pulls a no-show).
