Perhaps you could provide us with your legal qualifications, otherwise you risk accusations of having even less understanding.

you only need to check which view is correct to decide who has more or less understanding
I have done a lot with trademarks and I would suspect that the chances of trademarking advanced driving UK which is descriptive is virtually zero - however ADUK which means nothing as a word is more likely to be able to be trademarked - and ADUK is much more the brand / mark of trade of this website...

In other words, you don't know. That's cleared that one up.

Really? I think he's showing remarkable restraint in the circumstances - I'd have told you all to shove your head in a bucket by now. I'm not a Facebook fan, but I don't see why the "pack" are being so aggressive. Why don't you all go and do something completely useless, like take a driving test in a Model T Ford or something?
Thank you. If I have strayed away from my original point to some extent, it's largely as a result of the unnecessarily negative responses I received from what you fittingly describe as "the pack".
It started off as a constructive suggestion for a site that's clearly struggling, but it seems it's fallen upon deaf ears.

I suspect if it was illegal to copy content from a publicly accessible website, Google would be in breach of copyright laws every time they crawled a page and took snippets of its content to display in a site's description in its search results. There's also nothing wrong with quoting another site and referencing it accordingly.
