A guy just came into my building to visit an employee.
Were in Omaha, Nebraska. Said employee he's here to visit is in Weston, Oregon. He's off by about 1500 miles.

Yea if the trademark becomes part of the common usage they lose the trademark. See Band-Aid and Rollerblade. I think Coke is just barely holding on to theirs. Many companies go to weird lengths to prevent losing their trademark. In business school they told us coke sometimes hires people to go around the country ordering cokes, if they give them a pepsi instead they send them a letter from their lawyers.

Plus photoshopping is very much a verb on the internet these days and there's nothing they can do about it.
