When it comes to enforcing their trademarks, plenty of tech companies have been quite aggressive, even to the point of being accused of overreach. eBay (NSDQ: EBAY) has an system that automatically sends threatening emails to owners of many web domains that end in -bay.com. Intel (NSDQ: INTC) went on a lawsuit spree in 2008, filing 15 trademark lawsuits against companies that seem far removed from its business: from a Southern California electrical shop (once called Intellectric), to a Santa Clara travel agency (Intellife), to a Maryland investment advisory shop (Insider Intel). Now, we’re starting to get a look at Twitter’s views on trademark enforcement.
