Apple is presently suing a Swiss fruit association over its trademark on "apple". https://www.wired.com/story/apple-vs-apples-trademark-battle/ https://www.wir

  This is false. Apple applied for a trademark of a black-and-white depiction of an apple. They aren’t suing any Swiss organization over infringement of a trademark. The Wired article makes it seem like Apple is going after someone here, but they’re ‘just’ filing for a trademark. Whether you agree or disagree with the tactics, what they’re doing isn’t what you claim they’re doing.

  Please stop spreading this incorrect version of the story. Apple is not suing anyone; it has asked for a re-ruling from the Swiss trademark authorities. As far as I have been able to see, this is based on the ownership of the Apple Corps trademark, and the Swiss fruit association is making unnecessary noise that has been amplified by the credulous because anything about Apple (Designed in California) makes for more clicks.
