can anyone confirm? 😨

idunno, maybe some idiot at the patent office let them trade mark that. But it doesn't matter, nobody's going to get sued over that: just explain to the judge its like trying to patent "long division" it'll get their case laughed out of court

This kinda reminds me of the patented/illegal prime numbers that are used in certain cryptographic methods

Well, Sky has trademarked the word and was suing the creators of No Man's Sky for copyright breach... Anything is possible
