LOL you're joking Right. Pretend you have a laser light and wanted to shine it into the eyes of a plane would you stand a) In line with the runway on the planes landing approach so yo can get the light "into the cockpit" more easily b) off to the side where you will have to try and focus the light from below and try and track the plane as it moves across from you. now think nice and hard. and since light travels really really fast the fact that the plane moves at 300km/h isn't much of an issue. especially if its coming towards you, and you are only tracking it vertical movement. as anyone who has been in combat can attest.

Its because its similar to their title is why this has come about. here is an example of it happening in australia. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-08-03/mambo-drops-mabo-trademark-dispute/2822236 the Mambo CEO was unaware of the trademark dispute until it was brought up in the media. they apparently have a system in place that looks at new trademarks and if they are similar to their own they file a lawsuit/objection to get it changed.
