It would be fun if they lost also the trademark of any apple-related image, including their silly bitten apple logo.
Really, fuck IP and trademark laws. I see it as a net negative. I would rather throw this cursed baby away along with its shit water.
- SoftTalker 3y agoHow about fuck Apple? This is not the intent of IP and trademark laws, and Apple are the ones actually trying to abuse these laws to their advantage.
- mcv 3y agoApple are far from the only ones trying to do this sort of thing. In the past, we've seen companies trademark specific colours, common words ("windows"), and lots of other things. What trademark offices and judges need to remember is that the only reason trademarks exist, is to protect customers against impostors. Any trademark case that doesn't involve even the slightest chance of impersonation or confused customers, should be slapped down hard with a fine for the company bringing the lawsuit.
- danlugo92 3y agoIP, copyright and trademark are greed codified into law. Musicians should earn money from performances not bits. Painters should earn money from originals not reproductions. Photographers should earn money from shoots or originals (don't upload a high quality copy to the internet duh). Everything else is greed. One of the capital sins at that.
