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!)

06/07/2004 04:08 PMBOSTON - A Michigan man pleaded guilty on Friday to four counts of
wire fraud and unauthorized access to a computer after he and two
accomplices used a vulnerable wireless network at a Lowe's Companies
Inc. store in Michigan to attempt to steal credit card numbers from
the company's main computer systems in North Carolina and other Lowe's
stores in the U.S.

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 PMThis 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 PMMCI 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.
