What on earth does hegel mean? (not in any dictionary I can find as anything other than a proper noun).
But other more obvious "Tech-brand" hijacks would surely include most browser names (Chrome, Safari, Edge, Brave, Opera...), and of course Zoom, Teams, Twitter, Tinder & Telegram then the "indistinguishable in speech" ones like Tumblr, Flickr, Grindr, arguably even TikTok (*) etc. Arguably in most cases it's obvious when written due to the capitalisation anyway.
* interesting that Chrome's spell checker doesn't like TikTok regardless of how you capitalise it, unlike all other examples
