Nothing to see here.

The title of the post says it all.

Complaining about the Supreme Court’s decisions in this case or that case feels like a guy on the Titanic complaining about the song selection from the band.” - Well said.

Eh, this isn't me. I'm a trademark lawyer. I strive to avoid confusion. 😀

Contributory genericide?
