BOI® is now a federally registered trademark

So BOI is mentioned but I see no mention of Board of Inquiry being mentioned in the trademark.

It's amazing what a search engine and minimal effort can yield:

Disrespectful remarks like this one are part of the reason why a lot of people no longer use the Rich's BOI.

Thanks for your insight.

Do Federal trademarks impact Canadian groups on an American owned site?

Heck, I don't know. Not sure I want to pay my trademark attorney in order to find out.

But I sent the list you provided to FaceBook, so I'll just have to see how they rule on it. Might just be that deleting the groups is easier on them instead of trying to split legal hairs determining actual jurisdiction. Looking at it from their perspective, what would be the least headaches for them as a policy?

Thanks....

There's interesting reading to be had if one does a search of the Madrid Protocol.

The first four FaceBook groups are now gone.

I am discussing the matter concerning the Canadian based groups now with FaceBook. I asked them if I were to host a site on one of my USA based servers and allowed admins from another country to name it "FaceBook Too", attempting to capitalize on the look and feel of their own business, would I be in jeopardy of trademark infringement by hosting such a site, even with remote owners? Curious to see what they say.
