YouTube Wars: Microsoft cries foul as Windows Phone app pulled again

RaymondWa

YouTube is using my common trademark without my permission

YouTube's legal department wrote that I need to provide them a copy of a registration certificate from the USA trademark office asserting my ownership of my trademark.

My email to legal@support.youtube.com

Hi There,

It's a common law trademark so it is unregistered but it has been in use for over ten years.

No one else has the right to use it including YouTube.

YouTube is now knowingly misrepresenting my trademark

by allowing and protecting an unauthorized user to association

themselves with ***********.

If YouTube will not return what it doesn't have a right to use then I will seek legal recourse and I may bring public attention to this matter. I also told YouTube that I have owned the website with the same common law trademark for over ten years. I wrote in YouTube's feedback form "Do no evil, yeah right."
