[E-trademarks] Challenge Examiner's Reliance on Non-U.S. Websites

[Steve Zemanick]

Happy weekend listmates,

I'm hoping someone has suggestions for challenging an Examiner's reliance on third-party websites to demonstrate relatedness when the websites in question are for non-U.S. entities.  It seems to me that without a showing that these entities are conducting business in the U.S., the evidence is irrelevant or at least non-probative.  Citations or examples of past submitted arguments are most welcome.

Thank you as always.
