Methinks you should go buy as many typosquat domains as are available before copycats get to them.

@eroc1990 We own several already, but it's a losing game and a pretty expensive one at that.

Yeah, that sounds like Whac-a-mole.
Anything else that can be done about it?
I just reported it to DuckDuckgo, it is the third result for "keepass xc" there currently -.-
Od-Nan Kenobi@keepassxc @dreua @eroc1990 how costly is it to have a registered trademark? I imagine there are other benefits that might make it worth it depending on the cost.
Might be the only somewhat reliable way of leveraging official mechanisms to take down copycats and scam attempts

@odnankenobi @dreua @eroc1990 trademarks do not automatically protect anything. The owner is required to pursue legal action to protect the mark. That costs... a LOT of money.
