You can't park google/yahoo typo with Namedrive because google is their advertisement provider

i don't think you'll be able to park them anywhere. not sure, but maybe if you find a skenzo feed you might be able to monetize it

I would stay away from Google/Yahoo typos if I were you, you could easily be banned...

even though I'd hate to admit it, you're right what was I thinking.. DrPhibes I hope you know how dangerous holding/monetizing such typos is.

What is the worst possible scenario for this? I tought that TM owners ussauly just ask you to transfer the name over to them.. Has anyone had any worse experiences (like being sued or asked to pay some high compensation)?

yes it can happen - there are companies that will simply not settle with a hassle free transfer of the domain and will drag you all the way to court.
What's worse is that WIPO cases are being published on the internet and some Googling on your name might reveal that in the past you were accused of illegal practices online like typosquatting etc - so you can also forget about finding a good job too - most serious companies/employers will search your background before they hire you. TM typos is seriously something you want to stay away from

Yep.. Sued by a publishing company and ordered to pay $25,000.

I don't get this point , if owning typos is that bad why can we park other typos.I see the same double standart on godaddy , you can not register a name including godaddy , if they can protect themselves they should protect everybody if this is illegal.

Sounds like "Why do they still sell cars if you can kill somebody with it".

I would strongly advice to stay away from Google. They have a VERY good legal department. I got to know it and I consider myself a legal pro.
