Infringement Violations

[Jodi1980]

I see where there are people selling shirts, etc. with Disney pictures...can't they get in trouble from Disney for an infringement violation?

 

[aaarcher86]

Yes, probably.

They can if it is unlicensed merchandise.

 

[ZephyrHawk]

Could they? Yes. Will they? Depends.

Is it legal to speed? No. Does everyone who speeds get a ticket? No.

etsy shops selling Disney stuff get shut down A LOT

Its actually funny to see them whining on the forums

There is a fine line between being Disney Inspired and just plain infringement.

I have designed a few like "Team Gaston" and "Look like a Beauty, Train like a Beast" that Disney seems fine with. Anything with a pic of an actual Disney character is a no no.

I see a lot of Mickey head tie-dye shirts.

I see a lot of Mickey head tie-dye shirts.

That's a good question...is the standard 3 circle Mickey symbol trademarked...and if so, is it a certain size/ratio? hmm...

Very much so. In fact they are locked in a trademark battle with deadmau5 at the moment over the mark.

You gotta be discrete, no digital footprint. Late night, dark alley kinda stuff. Wear a trench coat and conceal the Anna watches on the left side, the Elsa watches on the right. Olaf is in a very special place.
