Dfinity launches a lawsuit against Meta over trademarking the infinity logo
The Swiss blockchain innovator, Dfinity Foundation, has officially lodged a lawsuit against Meta for adopting a look-alike infinity symbol in their logo, coupled with securing a trademark for comparable services and products. lawsuit Both Meta and Dfinity are in competition for the attention of individuals interested in Web3 and the rapidly changing digital landscape. The lawsuit cites that logos that look alike could mislead users and result in confusion.
Meta Platforms, previously known as Facebook, is facing litigation concerning its logo.
The distinctive blue logo of Meta is designed to embody the letter 'M.' The company, which rebranded from Facebook, stated in a blog post that the symbol is crafted to fluidly exist in the metaverse, where one can navigate through and around it. It possesses the ability to adopt limitless textures, colors, and movements, encapsulating the creativity and imagination typical of a 3D universe. Additionally, they emphasized the importance of a blue gradient that connects the symbol to their primary offerings, linking their future back to their foundational roots.
However, Meta has applied colors to the logo that bear a resemblance to Dfinity's colors. said The Swiss blockchain entity also expressed that they wish to dissociate from Meta's tarnished reputation, indicating in their complaint that any perceived connection between Dfinity and Meta due to the usage of a similar mark could lead users to associate Dfinity with privacy infringements or a failure to safeguard user data.
Dfinity operates using the Internet Computer blockchain (ICP), which saw its value drop dramatically last week, hitting as low as $11.49 on May 1, a staggering 98% below its initial launch price. Just a year ago, the token peaked at an impressive $460, but recovery prospects appear bleak.
In the meantime, Meta's Reality Labs faced a hefty $2.9 billion loss in Q1 of 2022. This division of the company is heavily invested in the development of the metaverse.
Meta is set to unveil its Project Cambria VR headset later this year.
