Question:
In June 2019, the Supreme Court issued a decision striking down as unconstitutional federal prohibitions against granting trademark protection for “immoral” or “scandalous” material. The case was brought by Erik Brunetti, who sought trademark protection for his streetwear clothing line, FUCT, which is available even in children’s and infants’ sizes, and includes a sweatshirt that reads, “We are fuct.” Three of the justices dissented. See Iancu v. Brunetti, 139 S. Ct. 2294 (2019). What were their concerns? Do you agree that these are legitimate government interests warranting a denial of trademark protection?
