Balderdash!

You are completely correct. I am an admin of a popular SL forum and I set it up to autoreplace all occurances of "Second Life" "SL" "Linden Labs" with the appropriate "Second Life®" etc. Seems to be working ok and is not encumbering to the users. The fact of the matter is they simply can't enforce this, there is no precedent for it. Fair use law allows for news related or personal use of trademarks so long as you are not using it for commercial purposes. http://fairusenetwork.org/reference/tm-fe.php
