   @wlf_warren Yeah, it is weird. I think the case is about them taking in a new name and performing/entering into contracts under that new name when their original contract is still valid. Unfortunately, the media misunderstood it as a trademark issue.

   As long as no one has trademarked "NJZ" in South Korea, under the category "Entertainment" (or whatever it's exactly called), they're fine to use it. The real issue is their existing contract, as far as their company is concerned, it still is valid. The burden is on "NJZ" to prove to the court that it is null and void.

   If they can't prove it, they're in to a serious legal trouble. They'll be fined for breached of contract. They can also get sued. All their existing deals will be cancelled, and those are breach of contracts too, which means they'll be fined, and if they fail to pay, they'll get sued.

   (In Korea, the artists/models are expected to be "good" in reputation, if in any way the brand they're endorsing is damaged or they can no longer use the investments in endorsement materials, the artist/model is fined. AFAIK, we don't have that kind of a clause in the Philippines, even if the endorser gets into trouble, we still see their promotional materials everywhere. 😝)

   Actually, it's surprising that someone is still signing them up for endorsements and other projects. Probably Western-controlled companies, who believes in "negative publicity is still good publicity".

   @jessecoynelson I'm saying his veracity, or lack thereof, isn't at issue.

   As a practical matter the blowback would preclude Trump from naming him. It's a poison pill.

   @aral @EU_Commission @EDPS @noybeu I don't use facebook, and very rarely log into instagram. I'm also unsure it is possible to freely consent if the alternative is paying, in particular in light of case law on this issue.

   As for your views on our ability to exact change through politics, they are dangerously cynical, and incorrext.. I'd invite you to look into the excellent work EDRi and AccessNow are doing in Brussels, and the positive changes they have made to laws.

   @hildabast Wow, science. Thanks for making this custom lit review for the fediverse community. Really interesting studies— but also helps illuminate the issue.

   As for why #qt would matter so much to #blacktwiter — well it’s the transition thing again but also trust. It really feels like trying to text with mittens on without it.
