Isn't making it illegal a way of sanitizing it though?


Will making (non-)computer viruses illegal sanitize the world of them?


Bad analogy. In the company name case, there’s a registry (list) with a gatekeeper (filter) in front of it rejecting very simple inputs (small strings) that don’t conform to their standards. You literally can’t get your company name on this list if you don’t pass muster. One might even say the list is “sanitized”.


No
