Do you have any examples of "You might get sued for this"?

There is the horrible example of the nice computer company that had called itself by a certain name. [1] They registered their domain in good faith and conducted business. Later, a multi-million dollar car company decided they wanted the domain for the name they choose after Datsun and lawyered up on the mom-and-pop computer company.

Well they've made the most of their situation by putting ads on the page.
I can also get "complex web design" for $100 per hour from them. Judging by the quality of that site, I might pass.

It’s an old site, looks like an old site, and only recently (last 5 years or so) started running ads. It has been 15 years since the lawsuit was first filed.

No, it says "Copyright © 1994-2016 Nissan.com". The layout and copyright indicates it was probably created ~20 odd years ago, and hasn't received significant updates in years.
The "2016" likely means they do minor/trivial updates now and again. Maybe it'll get a "2018" in the next 6 months or so too... :)

Shhh... don't tell them about `new Date()`
So I would advise you not to do it.
