That $81K/mo isn’t going to the registrar. Its going to the manager of Jone’s debt to be distributed to his creditors, including the families of Sandy Hook.
The deal calls for The Onion to pay $81,000 a month to license the Infowars.com domain and brand name, which the receiver says will “cover carrying costs to preserve and protect the assets of the receivership estate” until an appeal filed by Jones is decided and the path is cleared for a sale.
I see, so it’s temporary, although that appeal could take years
it is not temporary and it is not permanent. there isn’t ANYTHING yet. they have a wish they brought to a judge and now they wait for what the judge will decide. if the judge decides to their liking, then it will be temporary…
A very important point is that the judge can’t just reject the deal and let Alex Jones continue forward. The whole reason why the licensing deal is coming to fruition now (instead of in 2024 when he first lost control, or after all the appeals are exhausted) is because this middle ground became untenable: Alex Jones can’t afford the studio’s rent and the creditors are going to seize all the physical assets if they’re not being actively used to run a profitable business to preserve the status quo.
If the status quo is no longer an option, the court will have to order that SOMEthing happen.
