"Ubuntu One" name creates confusion.??
If you take a few seconds and read the description on the web page you would understand it's an online storage service for ubuntu systems.

Also the trademark owner has the right to use the trademark for their products and services, so there's no violation of trademark policy here.

BTW for all the people who are trying to make this a Free Software vs. proprietary software issue, pls don't try to create confusion trying to promote your own agenda.

Although it would be nice to have the source code to all those great web-apps that are being used in some of the popular services around the Internet (so you can host your own service?), but for the people who are using the hosted (on other people's HW/SW) services it doesn't ensure any of the freedoms that Free Software provides.

It's one thing to demand for Free Software drivers for a piece of hardware you bought but demanding for the source code for an online service you are using just don't make sense.

** Only thing I care about about is that Ubuntu won't force this on everybody and I can easily pull everything from this back to my web-dav based backup server if I'm not satisfied with the service.
