A tale of two Metas

for a number of art installations at the Panorama Festival in 2016. In order to make this post comprehensible, we’re going to refer to the billion-dollar social media company as Facebook and the smaller augmented-reality company as Meta.is; this is not an endorsement of either side’s legal claims.)

Much of the case hinges on Facebook’s many privacy scandals, which Meta.is argues has made it impossible to share the name. “Meta can no longer provide goods and services under the META mark,” the complaint argues, “because consumers are likely to mistakenly believe that Meta’s goods and services emanate from Facebook and that Meta is associated with the toxicity that is inextricably linked with Facebook.

Meta.is holds a valid trademark for the name but may still be facing an uphill battle in court, given the broad range of trademark applications Facebook has made since the name change became official — including separate marks for messaging, social networks, and financial services. There are also a number of trademarks claiming the Meta name for non-tech products, including a hard seltzer and manufacturer of prosthetic limbs.

Company wants to cash in on FB / META - Story at 11...

I saw something funny about this. If Facebook loses then we will see things like 'Microsoft' Cookies and 'Dove' Keyboards. It means that we can use company name for products not related to the company itself

Just listening and reading more about this news

And “rightly so”

And they should be. They pollute the word and it is a hige tax burden to have a corrupt company like Facebook thinks it can take such a general name and not bother about hurting anyone.

Wtf is meta

Oh poop… a paradox!

I think for simplicity we should just carry on calling them facebook.

That's so Meta

This will end with a monetary agreement between both parts, I’m sure

Diabolical

Facebook(Meta) is too big that it can take suing from multiple companies and still doing what they want to do. Their lawyers make things favourable to the company that's how these big companies work.

Meta issues everywhere 🙂

Now that is stupid,,, I'm going to sue everyone who has got my name... who said it was mine? or theirs? it is like buying food, it can look like another brand are they going to sue them for that

that’s so meta

That’s pretty meta
