                This has nothing to do with US or non US company. This simply is policy to prevent such bull like Acacia and patents. If you try to trademark a term that can be used in a sentense you are out of luck. This is descriptive for double the mint in something.

                Then it depends if you talk company name or product name. A company name is easier to protect than a product you can easily rename.

                Just don't try to critisize legeslation that really makes sense for a change or little people would someday pay fees for using their own language.
                SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
