Apparently, an infinity logo is all the rage in Web3.#meta #Facebook #Web3 pic.twitter.com/4Ay4a12uKy
Meta平臺(Facebook)正因其標識而被起訴。

瑞士一家開發區塊鏈技術(Dfinity)的非營利組織提起訴訟，稱Meta的新標識與自己的過於相似。
顯然，一個無限大的標誌在Web3上非常流行。#meta#Facebook#Web3 pic.twitter.com/4Ay4a12uKy
The DFINITY Foundation is the entity behind the Internet Computer (CRYPTO: ICP) blockchain. DFINITY's infinity symbol logo has been in use since 2017 and has had an approved trademark registered since October 2018.
DFINITY基金會是互聯網計算機(CRYPTO：ICP)區塊鏈。DFINITY的無窮大標誌自2017年開始使用，並於2018年10月註冊了經批准的商標。
Why It Matters: Meta filed an application for its own infinity symbol logo only in March 2022. According to DFINITY, the similarities between the two logos and Meta's intended use of the mark will cause confusion because both platforms are targeting a similar customer base in the same industry.
為什麼這很重要：Meta在2022年3月才提交了自己的無窮大符號徽標申請。根據DFINITY的説法，這兩個標誌之間的相似之處以及Meta對該標誌的預期用途將導致混淆，因為這兩個平臺都瞄準了同一行業的相似客户羣。
"Dfinity has suffered, and will continue to suffer, irreparable injury as a result of Meta's unlawful action and has no adequate remedy at law.
Unlike Facebook's (now Meta) centralized, closed system, Dfinity's focus is on decentralization and interoperability. Any association between Dfinity and Meta would cause consumers, including users and developers, to question Dfinity's core mission."
-stated the complaint.
由於Meta的非法行為，Dfinity已經並將繼續遭受不可彌補的損害，並且在法律上沒有足夠的補救措施。
與Facebook(現在的Meta)集中式封閉系統不同，Dfinity的重點是去中心化和互操作性。Dfinity和Meta之間的任何關聯都會導致消費者，包括用户和開發者，質疑Dfinity的核心使命。
-陳述了申訴。
