This one just happened to try to trademark words from another language. They're not trying to trademark words. It's a specific combination of words intended to identify a unique product, neither of which they're claiming on their own. That said: nicklebro posted... Some businesses have already been forced to change their names. And these guys have responded by denying the accusations and making a bunch of excuses for their behavior and admitted no wrong doing whatsoever, but are actually acting like the victims in this case. Its infuriating to me tbh. No, some businesses have chosen to change their names instead of fighting it in court. Prior use is a valid defense against trademark infringement and could even result in the registration being invalidated. --- I are Serious Cat This is serious thread ... Copied to Clipboard! |
