Cory Doctorow: Regarding yesterday's post on Starbucks Delocator, a site that shows alternatives to Starbucks, which has been scared off of using "Starbucks" in its name, Donna sez, "Blogger Scott Trudeau has registered StarbucksDelocator.com and StarbucksLocator.com and pointed them to the Starbucks Delocator site. Seems a noncommerical, noninfringing use of a trademark-referencing domain name to me -- and I'll wager the Ninth Circuit would agree." (Thanks, Donna!)

Cory Doctorow: NPR sez, "'The Delocator' is a site that helps you find independent alternatives to Starbucks in your neighborhood. So why isn't it called the 'Starbucks Delocator'? Because the San Francisco Art Institute was too scared that Starbucks would come through with the corporate smack-down. Of course this renaming means the site won't show up in google when people search for 'Starbucks', and what's the point if people can't discover it? Carrie McLaren is out to change that: she's launched a google campaign to get people to link to it by its real name, the Starbucks Delocator. Take that chilling effects. Now, get your link on!"

Did Starbucks Tell An Art Project About
Starbucks Not To Use Its Name?


Did Starbucks Tell An Art Project About
Starbucks Not To Use Its Name?
04/04/2005 11:34 PM
This one seems odd, and there's not enough evidence here to know how true the story is (or what the details behind it are). However, Copyfight has noticed a b log post about an online "art project" to show a comparison of the locations of local coffee shops with local Starbucks. The idea, of course, is to encourage people to go to the non-Starbuckian shops (though, in its current format, with very few independent coffee shops included, it seems to serve the opposite purpose, by just showing you where the Starbucks are, and leaving you thinking there's no competition). However, what caught the attention of the Copyfighter in question was the comments to that blog post, where someone asks why the offering, called Delocator.net doesn't appear to actually mention Starbucks anywhere. Someone apparently involved with the project responds that they were not allowed to use the name Starbucks anywhere, as Starbucks' lawyers would not allow it. This brings up the obvious question: why should Starbucks' lawyers have a say in such things? The only claim they could make is a violation of trademark, and if the site is clearly not associated with Starbucks (and the fact that they're pushing people to go elsewhere might give you a hint that they're not associated with Starbucks), then it's not a violation of trademark. Instead, it looks like Starbucks is yet another company trying to use trademark law outside of its intended purpose of avoiding confusion over brands, but more towards anti-competitive practices. Will they go after another coffee shop that compares their coffee to Starbucks' next? Of course, thanks to this policy, hopefully the Delocator site will get additional publicity -- proving, once again, that the Streisand effect works. The more you try to shut something down, the more likely it will spread via the internet.

In Brief: MCI adds thousands of wireless
hotspots
03/22/2005 04:43 PM
MCI on Tuesday launched 1,300 new Wi-Fi hotspots in Europe and the Asia/Pacific region, and will launch 3,400 hotspots in the U.S. in May. In addition to typical Wi-Fi locations such as airports and hotels, the MCI expansion will bring hotspots to new places that MCI customers requested, including cafes, bookstores, and business service centers. The Wi-Fi service is part of an MCI service for medium-size and large businesses called Remote Access Services, which includes dial-up, virtual private network connections. The MCI service includes a software package that connects users to the Internet using the connection of their choice. While other carriers offer Wi-Fi access, MCI's service ties Wi-Fi, dial-up, and broadband wired access together in one package. MCI customers don't need a separate subscription to multiple wireless providers for Wi-Fi access. The MCI service includes an unlimited Wi-Fi plan for $40 a month as an add-on to dial-up service. A time-based plan charges $8 an hour for the first hour, with a maximum of $15 a day.
