#62 Fedora Security: possible trademark violation
Closed: Fixed Opened by potty.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

Hello Council!

Abdel, from Panama is writing.

There is a website called Fedora Security [1] which is not related to the Fedora Security Lab [2]. As I understand from the Trademark Guidelines [3], it is a violation. Quote: "Fedora®, the Fedora word design, the Infinity design logo, Fedora Remix, and the Fedora Remix word design, '''either separately or in combination''', are hereinafter referred to as "Fedora Trademarks" and are trademarks of Red Hat, Inc."

Correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks in advance.

Regards!

Thanks -- I'll forward this to legal.

Because this isn't in the context of operating systems or the various other areas related to our trademark, this isn't something we are going to pursue. Thanks for the report.
