Are you allowed to use the AWS logo on a site that is not owned by Amazon?

I originally thought this was an official Amazon website...their lawyers would probably say the same thing...




“Allowed” is a funny thing.

I launched “Last Week in AWS” with AWS in the domain name seven years ago. AWS has never made an issue of it, though they obviously have that option.

I also have the option (and ownership) to migrate to “Last Week in the Cloud” and talk about their competitors, so it’s likely everyone is happier this way—but I confess to not kicking the bear hard enough to find out.


It’s probably because no one at AWS has heard of your little podcast or website /s

I’m sure you know that your name is brought up frequently inside AWS.


I thought I heard openai was sending cease and desists for *gpt domain names as well


Definitely not
