Is there a law that you must use a trademark to keep it?

[-] irmoz@reddthat.com 11 points 1 year ago

There's a similar law where you must at least defend a trademark against misuse to keep hold of it. That was the reasoning behind this music video for Velcro:

So, based on that, maybe they won't lose it just by not using it. But if someone else tried to establish a Twitter product, they may lose the trademark if they don't fight it.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/rRi8LptvFZY

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

I think there is, but AFAIK they can use it for something very minor and it still counts.
