LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - "She Hate Me" director Spike Lee is relieved that his name is no longer linked to sex -- well, porn anyway.
On Friday, Aug. 27, the 47-year-old filmmaker won a ruling by the World Intellectual Property Organization to own the domain name www.spikelee.com, which was being held by a Filipino cybersquatter, reports the AP.
Mercedita Kyamko has a history of registering high profile domain names that would link to porn site www.clubhongkong.com. Musician Carlos Santana is one of the eponymous celebrities who was exploited in what the United Nations panel deemed was a "parasitic fashion."
