Ask HN: Does trademark infringement mean you're becoming famous?
Yesterday I received an email from Katrin Rampf, legal manager for the Pomodoro Technique® organization:
"We've noticed you're using our logo as app icon and twitter profile image.
This use of our logo is not permitted.
I kindly ask you to read our guideline and make the necessary changes to be in line with our guideline."
The app we're talking about is Tomatoes (http://tomato.es). I will change the logo as soon as possibile because I don't want to infringe any trademark but I feel glad for the first line of text from Katrin because she says that "they've noticed" Tomatoes app.
I call these "happy problems".
What do you think about it?
