That's an attack, without proof being posted to go with it or followed up with it.

If by protection you mean how our legal system currently works in the U.S. and Canada and many Countries... then yes, anyone can use this - just most people don't need it. It's a registered name you publish for a set amount of time, and a couple other minor fees to pay.

Bit easier in some countries than others.. but either way, it's about as complicated as, getting out of your chair.
