Whether people are using their name "inappropriately" or not shouldn't matter - they're using their name and that's something that other brands would kill for.

I remember my Great-Grandmother always called a refrigerator a <a href="http://www.frigidaire.com/" rel="nofollow">Frigidaire</a> and now no one hardly even knows about the brand. There's a company that apparently had that kind of brand penetration but lost it. The only reason I ever heard of the company was because of her. Sure Google is much more than search these days. But even so <a href="http://www.alexa.com/" rel="nofollow">Alexa</a> still says Yahoo gets more traffic. If Yahoo gets more traffic but folks are saying things like they are "Googling on Yahoo" you would think that would mean nothing but good things as far as Google's likelihood of catching up.

Who has the biggest sales, Kleenex or that off-brand kleenex, Q-tip or that off-brand q-tip, coke or that off-brand coke? Once your name hits common usage your brand is made for life. If Yahoo complained about someone googling with their engine, I could understand it. Ya gotta wonder what people are thinking sometimes.
