One often overlooked aspect of owning a trademark : once you have it, you have to defend it. Not a surprise David Chang's lawyers are trying to enforce it. They have to

#182Pro tip: Send it to Nintendo with a picture of Mario to receive a Cease and Desist letter in exchange.

#183You make my day! instantly brought to mind the many people I care about. It's one of the simplest yet most meaningful, and impactful ways to express respect, appreciation, influence, and encouragement to those closest to us.

#185We need that here. So many down votes and flagged comments because one person might be offended because they don't understand the other person's perspective. So they choose to silence, shadow ban, or outright ban. Shame on you!

I agree so much, but the pessimist in me says that this isn't _really_ free, and I don't want to plug in a cool person's info without knowing who the info is being sold to. If this was publicly available document so I could fill in the missing bits, I'd send a dozen of these tomorrow.
> I don't want to plug in a cool person's info without knowing who the info is being sold to. Have we reached peak data privacy paranoia? Harmless lil projects that harken back to the good ol' days of the internet are somehow actually devious PII honeypots?

I have to agree with cootsnuck here. If you are one of the people that found it necessary to raise red flags in these comments about this web site, here’s why I think you got your level of paranoia wrong in this case:
1. The site was never going to scale. The guys are printing physical letters and hand-inserting them in envelopes with stamps, for free!
2. So some entrepreneurial folks on the internet have gathered a hundred physical addresses, and they know a self-reported name and IP address, and maybe some persistent cookie info about a human that might be the first person’s friend. So what? Go bring up https://www.beenverified.com You can gather more info there in 15 minutes than the Continue and Persist guys will get over their whole project.
3. Learn to recognize a fun project that was done out of kindness and a spirit of adventure! Yeah maybe they should have not put up the language of “we get to sell your data if somebody offers to buy our web site”. But so what! The whole thing is just a kind adventure that brought a smile to the faces of some strangers, and will never be more than that. I appreciate it!

No need to be patronizing. You clearly know what they mean, it’s a term that I’ve definitely seen beyond Reddit.
karma is definitely a reddit term. but besides that, nothing wrong with using reddit
Oh there is definitely something wrong with using Reddit after their API fiasco revealed how much disdain they have for their own users and moderators, but that’s besides the point

#189Having received a C&D letter or two in my day, I can still remember the unpleasant feeling of getting one. This would be a pleasant surprise, once the user recovers from thinking it was a cease and desist :)
