The record shows that the mark “FACEBOOK” is no longer live; it was cancelled on August 21 2020 because the owner, Facebook, Inc., failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The cancelled registration covered four classes: 016 for business cards and identity cards, 035 for business card design services, 040 for printing services, and 042 for online software and web‑page services that create business and identity cards for social networking. A new user looking to adopt a similar name would face the closest concern in the areas of printed business cards, card‑design services, printing, and online identity‑card software. The record does not give Facebook control over every use of the word “Facebook.” No enforcement activity—oppositions, cancellations, or court actions—is visible in the supplied history. The latest meaningful event was the cancellation in 2020. If you plan to use a similar name, be aware that the cancelled mark still signals a prior claim in those specific goods and services.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
