Trademarks aren’t patents. If your art team worked to choose a specific color, and your brand relied heavily on it, it would be easy for someone else to trick customers into buying your version if it wasn’t trademarked.

It only applies to that very specific color, and it only applies within your market sector, which seems fair to me. If I started making Kadberri chocolate in the same purple wrapper, they’d be right to be upset.

If we’re adding somewhat related concepts OP might find interesting, I’ve always thought these were neat: grammatically correct sentences your brain doesn’t process the first time.

If Google finds a way to profit off my inability to spell the word ‘definitely’ without checking, or my desire to learn the fourth king of Brunei at 2am, more power to 'em.

Being “my data” doesn’t automatically grant it “private”, “valuable”, or “meaningful” status. I’m fine if Google wants to start showing me ads for lightweight jackets. Fall is coming and I am probably gonna need one.

Also, have you used sheets? Hot shit compared to the fucking powerhouse that excel is.
