Not to mention that the World Taekwondo Federation would probably be rather 
upset if you tried to ban their standard acronym from use in domain names.

www.wtf.org

Taekwondo, BTW, is an Olympic Games sport since 1988 at least (their web site 
have an Olympic Games gallery from 1988-2012).

Their current web page uses WTF in various places as well as the name, for 
example: "1st WTF Free Style Poomsae Video Content for Pan American Region".

Didn't we already have this conversation at some point? I'm sure I remember 
the World Taekwondo Federation being mentioned before on this list.
