Bitcoin Trademark Troll Now Sending Bogus DMCA Takedowns
An anonymous reader writes "A couple weeks ago, Slashdot wrote about a lawyer named Michael Pascazi who was trying to trademark Bitcoin. Techdirt picked up on the story including Pascazi's evidence of the trademark. Pascazi has now sent Techdirt a bogus DMCA takedown request over the post, claiming that the header and footer in his stationary, which appears via an embed on the story violates his copyright. He appears to be claiming that simply posting any version of his stationary is a copyright violation. It's not clear if the content in question is even copyrightable, and if it is how Techdirt's use isn't fair use."Read more of this story at Slashdot.
