  1. Patenting a _word_? by djh101010 · · Score: 1, Troll

    How the heck can anyone get away with trademarking a common word? Can I trademark the word "trademark" and send the world into a self-referential abyss?

    I'm an apple user and supporter, but this is just silly. Name it that, fine, but don't try to limit other people from using it.
