Re: [GNU-linux-libre] [Freedom issue, originally posted on Parabola bug tracker] Trademarked logos
8jxvrx+1bfu4ijuj3e68, trademarks aren't necessarily a problem. Yes, there is potential (add emphasis on that word there) for problems. I'll include by reference how Mozilla's trademark policy goes too far by including distribution restrictions going against freedom #2, but that is a specific problem with a specific trademark policy and not something inherently a problem with trademarks themselves. It is necessary to evaluate each situation, and there doesn't seem to be anything special going on with the cases you've pointed out.
