RE: Can You Trademark a Steem Hashtag?

in #law7 years ago
Big, Misunderstanding, animated, gif

 The usage of metatags does not qualify as impersonation or association. I would have to write in my post I am "trademark" or I am working with or I am connected with "trademark." If you guys would only check your egos at the door you would see, I'm not your enemy... Lol...

I wrote the post because quote "this incident got me thinking about the implications..."
Again, because quote "It brings up an important issue for the Steem Platform"

Why?

 Because if Steem is ever going to be taken serious as a Social Media Platform, given its commercial nature "legalism" will become a more and more present force.

 I mentioned the incident at the beginning and the end of this post merely to express what brought the topic up. The section about "Inevitable Realities" is called a trends prediction and was not implied to have anything to do with reports of actual happenings within the prior mentioned incident. Go ahead and flag away it only proves my "trends prediction" and corroborates "abuse of the flagging system."

 Another article you all might might want to read about how even simple memes like the one above are increasingly becoming targets of infringement claims.
