More on trademark trolls, a nasty instance of which was recently covered here at Tentaclii. In the UK there’s been a ridiculous and expensive case against the 1960s band ‘The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band’, over their own use of their own name no less. This stupid state of affairs has finally roused the ire of Parliament. Apparently, if a sensible British government is returned at next Thursday’s general election, such matters…
will be pursued further in Westminster with the assistance of some supportive MPs, so that other bands do not have to suffer the same nightmare.
… and hopefully any resulting legislation will also spill over to benefit many other indie creatives.
