FACEBOOK POKE
Dead · Cancelled DEAD/REGISTRATION/Cancelled/Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that the mark “FACEBOOK POKE” was registered on the Principal Register in 2014 but was cancelled in March 2021 because the registrant failed to file a required declaration. The owner listed is Facebook, Inc., a Delaware corporation. The cancelled registration covered computer‑application software for mobile devices that facilitates social networking and data management, as well as communication services such as social networking, photo sharing, and text messaging. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the areas of mobile social‑networking software and related communication services. The record does not give Facebook control over every use of the words “Facebook” or “poke” in other contexts. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations beyond the Section 8 cancellation appear in the supplied history. The last meaningful event was the cancellation on March 12, 2021. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status means the mark no longer protects those goods or services, but the name could still pose a risk in the same or closely related fields.
