It might not be smooth sailing for Mark Zuckerberg in his quest to change Facebook's identity, because we've learned someone was already ahead of him in trying to grab the "Meta" trademark ... and they're willing to give it up to Zuck for a steep price.
A little bit? Still assembling a PC is different enough from developing new VR headsets. Which is why I think the settlement is $20 million. Even if Facebook could theoretically win in court it's better just to avoid that and not waste any time .
You can trademark a name even if another company has it, if you're in different industries. This company makes custom gaming PCs. Facebook does not
Dove soap and chocolates are different companies
But facebook makes a VR gaming headset, isnt that close-ish?

It's tech related. It'd be funny to see the courts try to differentiate that
