Question About The Word 'Adsense' in Domain Names

Would it cross Google's TOS to use the word 'adsense' in a domain name? I see tons of them when I search Google, but I would not want to put my account in jeopardy. Anyone?

Thanks,
John

    hmm, I don't think I would ever risk that one - already received a good few solicitors letters directing me to hand over branded domain names

      There are a ton of sites that use adsense in the domain.
      There are a ton of blogs that use adsense in the name.
      Not a problem. Unless you pass yourself off as an official
      adsense site. This pattern goes through out the web.
      One example is the many (fill in brand name here)secrets.com

      If not, I guess Joel Comm knows nothing. I guess he just gets
      his site listed first by accident. I would imagine if google were
      going to shut someone down, they would go for the big name.

      then have a look at the sponsored listings. Somewhere there
      is going to be a domain with the word adsense. I just looked
      and, 3 ad sense dot com comes up for me as a sponsored listing
      on the right. So, a site with adsense in the domain is using adwords.

      Just do a search for adsense secrets.

      In fact, do a search for any brand name and there will be a plethora
      of domains with brand names.
