New uniswap drama: the lawyers sent takedown notices to legitimate forks that removed censorship. If you are looking to embed uni functionality into your app, glance over micro-eth-signer (https://github.com/paulmillr/micro-eth-signer). It allows to call Uni contract directly, without censorship, in 10 lines of code.

Not true at all The UI has been forked thousands of times, it’s v easy to do so. Code is gpl for a reason and we like UI forks We do domain takedowns for trademark issues that make the site appear as if it was built by Uniswap labs (like using the branding or name in url) It’s very easy to just not use the brand

Using identical branding misleads users and is a thing that predominantly is done by scammers We have to take down hundreds of scam impersonator sites and accounts per week we have very clear, fairly permissive guidelines based on Linux https://uniswap.org/trademark

Serious question: What are jurisdictions of uni trademark? Does it affect Ukraine? What about EU? Oman? If it doesn’t affect some countries, does it mean one can use it for whatever and notices have no legal basis?
