    According to Trademark law in many places you can.

    Generally, you can only enforce your trademark (successfully) if the infringing group is in the same industry. So if I sold an educational service or toilet bowl cleaner called Apple the tech and music giant can’t go after me for trademark infringement, though for music, computer tech and software they would have a case.
