Juno still provides dialup service and free email. I just fixed a Juno email issue for a friend (which turned out to be their AVG blocking it). Not sure how this other company gets away with calling themselves Juno.

They're in a different space / industry.

Trademarks exist to prevent confusion between similar products. Juno, the free dial-up and e-mail provider and Juno the taxi/transportation(?) company are very different.

I guess it couldn't hurt the older Juno either, since people may google Juno to look for it and poke around the Juno website looking for the app for ridesharing.
