X Social Media is suing X, a social media company::Elon Musk’s X is being sued by a Florida company called X Social Media for alleged unfair competition and trademark violations that it says have resulted in lost revenue.
Except their logo wasn’t stolen.
X is using a standard Unicode symbol.
Which one?
𝕏 is a Unicode character known as “mathematical double-struck capital X.”
𝕏 (U+1D54F) and/or 𝕩 (U+1D569)
If you search blackboard bold or double-struck letters you can find more.
So basically musk is so cheap (and toxic) he can’t even convince any graphic designers to work for him.
Lol
Is something like a unicode symbol even valid as a trademark?
Probably not protectable, no. It has to be in use in commerce and distinctive. That said, with enough money you can buy enough lawyers to warp reality, so who knows.
