So if I call my next software product "iCandy" I can expect a perfect storm of legal attention?

If you did that, I imagine that the answer to the following question would be 'you'.
What's between junk-food and health-food?

Quick...
Figure out the top 5 key words used for web site names.
Trademark them.
Collect $$$ from all sites that use those words.
Retire...

Candy Crush Saga Alternative
or
Not Candy Crush Saga

I'll say ridiculous - why didn't they also trademark the word "Crush"!! If I wanted to confuse someone into thinking that my game was related to Candy Crush Saga, I'd be more inclined to use the "Crush" part (or the Saga part). Like, "Vegetable Crush Saga". "Ice Cream Crush Saga" etc. To me, Crush & Saga are more unique to the company, than candy - except of course the "Orange Crush" may have already trademarked Crush. Maybe Orange Crush should be suing Candy Crush for infringing on their trademark!!!

No, but they will have to add the word "sh1thead", which refers to patent trolls and the idiots who grant ridiculous patents.
Those who grant patents have obviously gained too much power over, well, everyone in the world, so need to be exterminated regulated.

No points for figuring out how that went, but you can now use Street View to see the track[^]. And now (thanks to my mouse finger), I can say I've gone through the track.

Mr Clean-And-Non-Musical: dope, booze, prescription drugs, street racing in a residential area in a rented Lamborghini while not actually having a valid driving licence... 
Still rich though. Stupid, but rich and stupid. Make that talentless, rich, and stupid.

He may have some talent as an entertainer of sorts but if he doesn't want to crash and burn he needs to grow up.

Literally, if his idea of fun is street racing while stoned and drunk...

I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

Since his money is not inherited, you can't call him talentless.

As expected though, he was anything but shameless, he waved to his fans with a grin when he was released on bail. Kid thinks the world is a game.
