    Like this is definitely dissimilar, but even if it were an on the nose deal with like “Sauron Sauce” or whatever as one of their offerings, you’re still getting recognition.

    At least in US Intellectual Property Law there are rules for some areas that once you, as the rights holder, know of possibly infringement you must defend your IP or you risk losing it.

      Yes, but trademarks only apply to a single industry in the US.

      I could open a coffee shop called Ford Motor Company, and Ford couldn’t do a damn thing about it.

      Not sure how it works in NZ, though.
