Thanks for the notes mrkwse. I try to show copy like the following when trademarks show up:
> Naturally, trademarks apply to any brand icons or logos above. That means that you can use them in practice (for example, linking to the respective service), but that the company likely has limitations on how else they can be used.
I need to do some work to communicate that better :)
- paledot 6y agoMight be worth being very explicit which icons are trademarks. Facebook is obvious to basically anyone with an internet connection at this point, but there are plenty of brands that, despite (or because of) paying 7 figures to a big name design firm, ended up with super generic-looking symbols as their logos. "Ooh, that's a great apple/bird icon, I'll just use that."
- onassar 6y agoYep that's a good idea. I do some internal tagging when something is a brand logo, so I could use that data to put a little notice in the Preview modal that it's likely trademarked :)
