So, look for a more plausible reason before you continue worrying about this, because this issue has already
been solved.

Okie... I guess the issue is solved because Tomason's opinions of the laws that exist are different. Laughable.

I'm glad you "think" all of these things and have your own opinions on the laws that Google *will* follow. The truth of the matter here is that Google and its lawyers will gladly take down any Torcoin app the second they get a request from Tor's legal team. In your twisted logic, I could start "MicrosoftCoin" and you serious believe Apple or Android will keep this app around in their app stores? No! The second Microsoft's legal team makes a request to take it down, they will.

Good luck with your theory, I hope you have the funds to pursue a legal battle in court with Tor to defend your beliefs on intellectual property and trademarks.

It is sad that you all keep trying to make shit up to defend this scam coin but it is all good, you are all just showing yourself for who you are... and actions have consequences.

Case and point. Tor does not want anyone using their name, their brand, or their logo. You can come up with your own stupid photoshop image of a new onion but it isn't going to take away the fact that this coin is using Tor's name, and the entire purpose of the coin is driven off of the use of Tor. Tor has already expressed that they will fight it and do not like Torcoin, and Torcoin will lose. Torcoin has no legal team, they don't even have a developer they can point to.

Can I use the word "Tor" as part of the name of my product or my domain name?

Please don't use Tor in your product name or domain name. Instead, find a name that will accurately identify your products or services. Remember that our goal is to make sure that people aren't confused about whether your product or project is made or endorsed by The Tor Project. Creating a new brand that incorporates the Tor brand is likely to lead to confusion, and commercial confusion is a sign of trademark infringement.

We hold two trademarks in the United States:

Tor Onion Logo, U.S. Trademark Registration No. 3,465,433
Tor, U.S. Registration No. 3,465,432.

Logo or not, it's violating trademarks.

I'm glad you want to live in your own world where these laws are "not right" and go against your own beliefs, they sometimes go against my own, but the reality is Google/Android & Apple/iOS live in the world where these laws are adhered to, and it is foolish to think they would ever allow a "Torcoin" app when Tor does not endorse or agree with Torcoin using their registered trademarks.

Genius, obvious that no one can use a name of a trademark registered as it is Microsoft
which is not a word of the dictionary is rather a mark composed of two words that means
(micro software) and not a word of the dictionary merely common. Microsoft is a genuine
brand and not a simple word.

Is the onion also private property, seriously?? Each one is free to draw an onion as desired
and make it a logo. Maybe the current Torcoin logo is an exact reproduction and in this
I agree with you, but otherwise I think you are totally wrong.

The differences between one thing and the other:
