Stop the Trademark Act from Diluting Free Speech! The Trademark Dilution Revision Act (TDRA, HR 683) is a big company's dream. If it passes, the lawyers policing a trademark could sue businesses and individuals for using words, images, or even colors that look vaguely like a famous brand - without even having to prove that the company is being harmed. In other words, TDRA would make it possible for UPS to sue Brown's Record Store, even though nobody in their right mind would get the two confused. This bill would chill speech and hand ownership of common words to big companies. Fight the TDRA today! https://secure.eff.org/site/Advocacy?JServSessionIdr001=jacypkxa31.app8a & page=Us\ erAction & cmd=display & id=113 http://BuzzardsRoost.aimoo.com http://www.GranniesAgainstGeorge.us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
