INAL but it is my understanding that this practice (registering a website with the same name of an existing third-party restaurant) is already a break of various existing laws, at least potentially.

But, frankly, for small restaurants it's already difficult to make ends meet, so who's got the means to actually take a company like lieferando to court?

For the .bg domain, registering a company with the same name as the domain allows you to appeal to the registry and get the domain. It's the same if you have a trademark.

for any TLD/ccTLD including .bg if you have a trademark you can get the domain even if its registered by someone else - its a very simple appeal process - Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy
