What I really hate is when marketers take words and use them totally in the wrong context from which they belong to make you think something is better than normal. Last night I saw a commercial for some new anti-wrinkle cream that called itself some kind of blah blah blah Wrinkle Protocol. The actors kept repeating the word as they spouted on about how since they started using the "blah blah blah Wrinkle Protocol", they have gotten such great results.
It's a Cream People, a physical object. Not a "protocol"!!!
With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.

But the procedure for using the cream could be considered a protocol. Oh, and Audioholics has their First Look at the receiver with the integrated sub up now.

True enough, but that' is not how they were using it in the sentences. It's semantic usage inferred that the cream itself was a protocol all on it's own.
