FACEBOOKSerial 85440333 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: Facebook, Inc.
Class 042 - Scientific & Technology Services
Filed Oct 05, 2011
The record shows that the mark “FACEBOOK” is dead, having been abandoned because the owner, Facebook, Inc., did not file a Statement of Use or Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance. The mark was a service mark on the Principal Register and covered services in class 042, specifically providing temporary use of online non‑downloadable software for creating business and identity cards, developing customized web pages and other data feed formats featuring user‑defined information for facilitating social and business networking, and identity card design services. A similar name would raise the closest concern for services that involve online business card creation or social networking software. The record does not give Facebook control over every use of the word “Facebook.” No enforcement actions such as oppositions or cancellations appear in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the abandonment on January 11, 2016. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status suggests a lower risk, but the specific services listed still present a focused concern.

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.
