That isn't how liability works. The judge isn't going to let you sue the wrong person because you're confused.
- lcnPylGDnU4H9OF 1y ago$developer/publisher’s lawyer still has to show up and explain the confusion to the judge. Not a legal liability but a financial one. Then if one judge somewhere says something something trademark? they would also have to appeal.
- AnthonyMouse 1y agoIt doesn't even get to that point because the first thing someone who wants to file a lawsuit does is hire a lawyer, and the lawyer isn't going to bring the case against the wrong party either.
- maverwa 1y agoNot legaly liable, but the "court of popular opinion" cares very little about facts, details, or legal entities.
