Where does it end? An individual working on an open-sourced project has to get strong-armed out of a 3-letter name because a corporation paid for it? Isn't that concept a little ludicrous in its own right?

Could this eventually end up a constant corporate whack-a-mole until project names ultimately degrade to random strings of consonants?

If it's professional to contact someone and say "Hey buddy, we're bigger than you — change or we'll ruin you" then maybe "fuck you" is necessary.
