I could imagine the optics of going after a project named "Postwoman" would lead Postman to not pursue this.

- adventured 7y agoZero chance of that being a primary issue when you're dealing with a directly competing product. If they allow their trademark to go unprotected from an extremely blatant hit like this, their trademark might as well be worthless. Having a competing product in the market using an intentionally similar name, is a large value debasement for the Postman brand & offering (not to mention the $58m in venture capital that is betting on the value of those things). Is Postwoman from the Postman company? They're similar products? Are they competing products from the same company? The sound you hear is millions of dollars in venture capital being flushed down the toilet. No serious company is going to hold back on a legal response just because you staple woman/women/her/she to their existing trademarks and seek to compete head-on with their products or services.
