Speaking of Google..
I had the unfortunate fortune of working on an ad campaign recently. It
brought to the fore many questions.. some of them were about this.
If I put an adword on "symantec", don't I breach their trademark, or
Google does?
I doubt anyone would sue Google to find out, or be in courts for so long
it won't matter any longer.
Annoying, but works both ways.
