Google Loses Second French Trademark
Lawsuit
02/05/2005 09:48 PMComing just weeks after a French court
seemed
to misunderstand the purpose of trademarks a second French court
has ruled that
Google cannot
sell ads based on trademarked keywords. This time, the case was
brought by Louis Vuitton Malletier. Here, the argument appears to
make a bit more sense on its face, as it wasn't competitors that LVM
was worried about, but counterfeiters selling products to people who
searched on the Louis Vuitton name. Except... that's wrong. Louis
Vuitton Malletier should be going after the counterfeiters, not
Google. The counterfeiters are the ones who are breaking trademark
law by advertising products that aren't actually Louis Vuitton. So,
why is Google involved at all? They're just offering the platform by
which these ads are placed and shouldn't be responsible at all for the
content of those ads. Furthermore, as long as the ads aren't
confusing buyers about the nature of the products, then there's no
reason for it to be trademark infringement. It's just in cases where
there is confusion -- and then it's the company doing the confusing
that should be taken to court.

Google Faces Another Lawsuit
Google Faces Another Lawsuit
08/18/2004 04:26 PMAnother lawsuit has been filed against Google due to the companies
AdWords keyword advertising program. So next Tuesday Google will be
heading over to a German courtroom where it will continue to defend
its technology against Metaspinner Media GmbH.
Metaspinner claims that Google's AdWords keyword advertising program
infringes on its "Preispiraten" trademark. According to
PCWorld Metaspinner already "won a preliminary injunction against
Google last November and is seeking a permanent injunction and
damages." This isn't the first time Google has been taken to
court for similar trademark infringements. Earlier this year American
Blind & Wallpaper Factory accused Google that its search engine's
keyword-based advertising violates its trademarks.
This probably isn't the last of these types of lawsuits, eEspecially
since several companies use generic words in their names - e.g.
General Motors. Because of this, Google could also be targeted for
keyword-based advertising. For Google's ad program to be ever
sucessful, they need to resolve these issues once and for all.
