There does seem to be confusion among WPEngine customers from exhibit document. Whether they are in violation of the trademark or not is up to a judge to decide on. WPEngine have recently been doing a lot of changes on their website to clarify that they are not Wordpress. That does not automatically make them in violation, but it indicates that there were areas where they could have been more clear in their communication to customers.

Give us a link to the rss feed and let’s investigate. I’m not experiencing this.
What a nice person you are.
I haven’t stumpled upon anything that complained about the use of the letters WP.
That would be if WPEngine sold hosting of an unmodified Wordpress codebase.
Unless you refer to something other than violation of a trademark, I’m curious to know how it’s more complicated than that?
Beware of using javascript to display customer satisfaction. This is how WPEngine looks without javascript enabled.
If you modify a trademarked product and sell/distribute it, you can’t use the trademarked name to describe it unless you get permission to do so.
The standard agrees with you that and are equal to #if defined and #if !defined, but your example does not make much sense the me. #if only takes constant expressions which can be evaluated at translation time. It can’t compare strings.
Reminded my of what happened at the MindTheTech conference half a year ago.

Automatic Content Recognition (ACR) [42] is widely used for second-party tracking in smart TVs. As shown in Figure 1, ACR periodically captures frames (and/or audio), builds a fingerprint of the content, and then shares it with an ACR server for matching it against a database of known content (e.g., movies, ads, live feed). When the fingerprint matches, ACR server can determine exactly what piece of content is being watched on the smart TV.

As a general stance “People want me to give them free shit. I say gtfo.”, I understand you.
That’s just not proportional to Mozilla and Firefox. In 2022 they had a total revenue of $595 million¹. That allows them to hire 3305 software developers at a salary of $180.000. Google was responsible for 81% of that revenue¹. If you remove Google and their influence from the equation you’re left with $113 millon and Mozilla can then hire 628 software developers. I think that would be more than adequate to maintain a browser.
lol, I think we’re giving too little credit to the marketing people in tech. I want to read their blogs!
I’m only talking about trademark law. I’m not arguing what’s morally right or wrong, that’s a subjective perspective. I’m not able to tell if Dreamhost and Bluehost are violating the trademark, but from what I know they are generic webhosting companies and not as easily confused with Wordpress. In my personal opinion having had a quick look at Dreamhosts page about hosting Wordpress. It seems quite obvious that they only host the Wordpress software, with prominent phrases like “optimized for WordPress” and “Recommended by WordPress.org”.
