- skinnymuch 5y ago“ Starbucks did not pursue legal action, although it did note to the press that it was "evaluating" the possibility while reinforcing that the "Starbucks" name is a protected trademark.

Who knows what would’ve happened otherwise. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumb_Starbucks https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumb_Starbucks
