In case you didn‘t know, you can verify at least your external profiles (website, YouTube, etc.) on Mastodon. This makes it easier for moderators to spot fakes and handle reports.
In Edit profile, Profile metadata, add your YouTube channel URL.
On any site you control,add a link back to your Mastodon profile with rel="me", like:
<a href="https://your-instance/@yourname" rel="me">Mastodon</a>
Once Mastodon sees that link, it shows a checkmark next to the URL.

"Defend Our Juries, who organised the demonstration, said the protest “will go ahead as planned”, PA Media reports.
In a letter of response to Scotland Yard, it said: “The protection of our democracy and the prevention of countless deaths are critical issues. Therefore, our protest will go ahead as planned for this Saturday.
“We urge you, therefore, to choose to prioritise protecting the community, rather than arresting those peacefully holding signs in opposition to the absurd and draconian ban of a domestic direct action group.
“We hope you make the right choice to not arrest those taking part, and correctly deploy counter-terrorism resources this weekend.”

Ever since the early 1900s (definitely before WWI) scientists & elites have known that burning coal and oil were bad for the environment.
In the 1950s the largest oil companies in the US were informed by their scientific teams we were on a course for global warming. They decided to hide the reports.
In the 1960s-1970s, the Club of Rome described the collision between capitalism and finite global resources. That report was also briefly discussed.

@andrew_shadura If I recall correctly it was put in place to warn users doing software archeology about old versions and also avoid bug reports.
In this cases I think it comes down to legality Vs not being a dick. If upstream explicitly tells you to stop under reasonable circumstances then just fork it and change the name.
More projects should keep their trademarks to avoid situations like this one but alas.
