A cease & desist is a lawyer's way of "asking politely", the alternative being a lawsuit.

  Agreed. Or by the same metrics I could make a fake website for my bank and put a one line disclaimer in the about page. That wouldn't be right.

    And yet your bank doesn't need a special law regulating the use of its name. We already have laws against fraud, which cover such misleading cases. This is much more broad.

      The city of the story doesn't need a special law either.

        Yet, apparently, it has one.
