    I can hardly see how Apple can prevent its logo being interchanged in plain
    text considering that it is included in all legacy Macintosh charsets. As
    long as plain text in those charsets is being interchanged, it is entirely
    up to the end users whether to interchange this particular character or not.
    If Apple feels this way about its logo, it shouldn't have encoded it in its
    OEM charsets in the first place.
