X blocks social startup from using Twitter name
A federal judge in the state of Delaware has ruled to prevent the emerging company Operation Bluebird from using the name "Twitter" and related trademarks for its platform, asserting that such use could confuse users and infringe upon X's trademark rights. Meanwhile, X has failed to prevent the company from using Twitter's bird logo. The judge confirmed that X has waived its rights to the word "Tweet" and the blue bird logo, but still considers the name "Twitter" to be registered, with its owners maintaining their rights. Operation Bluebird has requested the cancellation of X's trademark rights, while X contends that the company's attempt to steal the name constitutes an infringement of its rights, and has requested a temporary restraining order to prohibit the use of the name during the case's proceedings.
