AllanMansoor.com domain lapse and subsequent trademark lawsuit

In February 2017, the OC Weekly reported that Mansoor's personal website had been purchased by a "John Doe" after Mansoor allowed the registration to expire. Mansoor's website was altered to a blog that reviewed pornographic websites with titles such as Backroom Facials and Ass Parade. Mansoor brought a lawsuit in federal court for trademark infringement against the anonymous purchaser of his domain.[4]
