First, @MarsGlobal sent a legal complaint to us over the use of the strain name 'Zkittlez', claiming it's a reference to 'Skittles'.
Then came @LotusBakeries, complaining that 'Biscotti' was a rip-off of their trademark for 'Biscoff'.
Today @KelloggsUS have filed a trademark dispute over 'Fruit-Loops & Fuel', and this time via @Cloudflare instead of actually sending us the legal letter directly.
In general, we've now defended ourselves successfully against around a half dozen of these such frivolous legal complaints.
โ We are not responsible for naming the cultivar.
โ We do not sell the product.
โ We have to accurately report common cultivar names.
โ Prescriptions will bounce with incorrect terminology.
โ We will win any legal dispute over this.
โ Even @MHRAgovuk will tell you to bugger off.
We're not @Leafly, we won't censor anything โ it's not within our remit nor capabilities to be able to rename colloquial terms for cannabis strains.
Fight us by all means, it just wastes everyone's time.
Today, End Our Pain families are calling on @andyburnham to support our urgent appeal for Government intervention to protect the supply of medicinal cannabis oils for children and adults with severe, treatment-resistant epilepsy.
After eight years of fighting for access and overcoming repeated supply difficulties, we have secured a UK manufacturing solution. However, developments in the Netherlands now threaten the continued supply of the essential raw materials needed to produce these medicines.
For children whose seizures have finally been brought under control, another interruption could have devastating consequences.
We urgently need the UK Government to engage with the Dutch Government to protect continuity of treatment before another avoidable crisis occurs.
