Microsoft released Popfly and some users were redirected to http://popfly.ms/. So, where does Microsoft get this .MS domain? Microsoft isn’t breaking any laws or circumventing any of the usual steps: .MS domain names are officially assigned to one of the last overseas British territories, Montserrat, named by Christopher Columbus back in 1493; but the .ms domain name is open to the public regardless of region or political affiliation.

Surely not trademark rights, as Montserrat isn't the United States. And country-code domains, as codified and recognized by ICANN from the ISO-1366 list, fall outside of most of the established rules for generic top-level domains. Then again, if you were being sarcastic, then it's my fault for missing it - I'm silly that way :-) On what grounds would Microsoft sue?
