Hey @linuxfoundation@social.lfx.dev why are you sending takedowns on redbubble for generic Unix terms and project names you don't own?
It seems that the Linux Foundation has decided that both “systemd” and “segmentation fault” (lol?) are trademarked by them.
Well damn, I guess fraud must be a lot more widespread than I thought. Because no one seems to get punished for this behavior. Just recently, Lockpick, a tool for getting Nintendo Switch roms off a physical device, was dmca’d, and the person who filed the complaint admitted to doing so on twitter. They received no punishment.
Unless the company you’re impersonating does something, nothing will happen. Hosts like Twitch and YouTube don’t care about whether or not a DMCA is fraud because it’s just easier for them to remove the content and delegate resolution to not them. It’s easy to abuse and often is; no one with money cares enough to do anything.

I think it’s likely that this is a similar case.

Fraud is a lot more widespread than most people think, across all categories.
