Trademark Electronic Search System (TESS)

I get -0- not found on a trademark word search

'\#Rio2016'

'Rio2016'

This is the USA/Madrid Trademark registration search there

In Europe same thing.

Quote:

Eric Goldman, a Professor of Law at Santa Clara University, thinks the USOC approach is overly aggressive and ridiculous. He told us "I think that trying to tell companies that they can't use the hashtag #Rio2016 or #TeamUSA in their tweets, most of the time they're going far afield of what the law permits and when companies use the ambiguities of trademark law to try and squelch socially beneficial conversation, I call that bullying."

I agree with the Law Professor
