The founder of the show and platform for podcasts This Week in Tech (TWiT) Leo Laporte sued the Twitter microblogging service because of violation of the rights to use the trademark. This is written by TechCrunch with reference to court documents.
Laporte and Wilms agreed that both projects can exist under their own names simultaneously, since they are used to distribute different types of content.
In a conversation with Laporte, Williams described his project as a "microblogging text service" and did not plan to launch audio and video services under the Twitter brand, the suit said. In 2010, he moved away from operational management of the company.
In May 2017, Twitter announced the launch site for the original video. After that, TWiT's lawyers asked the company to clarify their actions, but the talks were unsuccessful. Now TWiT demands to forbid Twitter to use its brand for video projects and receive money from them.
Twitter and TWiT did not respond to TechCrunch's questions about the conflict.
I hope he kills Twitter, I know it's a bit unrealistic but I can hope too !
