That insurance company's logo is a serif font and the logo has other
elements so it wouldn't be confused.

My 2c is they would only have any logo protection if it was a registered trademark. but there is still the
point that 'if' is a common english expression.

Also, DNS registration
in one domain does not preclude registration in any other domain,
unless whomever holds 'if.se' has already registered all the if.*
