But the simple thing here is this. Trademarks and all other form of IP are an indefensible postion. When someone creates a thing of a new paradigm the first mover is the one everyone learns of first. So inherently that name whatever it may be is by necessity what people will call it. Kleenx & coke are some great examples. Everyone refers to these trademarks AS THE THING all the time when referring to the thing. Using the state to forcibly make others not use a similar name is just retarded and makes you look weak.

quoting nevent1q…q448

Trademarks are a fuck if you do, fuck if you don't type of law.

Was not an easy decision, but had to be made. I own it.

If you don't defend it, you lose it.

And If someone made an evil version of our products we would have less recourse.

Running your sales site of your knock off out of the same repository as your codebase is retarded. Trademark has nothing to do with the code.

Things are never as simple as the cancel ppl try to make it be.

The drama seems to always originate from the same sources...
