Remember Facebook with anything Book, I guess they did not invent book either. Big companies always have ways to come after small folks.

- tvon 15y agoI think Facebook has a case, at least with regards to dogbook/catbook/petbook, because why the hell would you call something "dogbook" unless you were trying to say "it's Facebook but for dogs"? But Rosetta stone named themselves after the Rosetta Stone which is an ancient translation tool, for them to then turn around and try to protect that as if it was their copyright is just mind boggling (to me, anyway).
- chc 15y agoIt would be trademark, not copyright. The difference is extremely important to the question of whether they can "own" the term in some sense.
