Michael Littig: 我收到了Box.com的停止函,他们声称AI Box这个名字侵犯了他们的商标权,因为当用户搜索Box AI时,我们的网站也会出现在搜索结果中。我认为他们的主张有些牵强,因为很多公司都在使用“Box”这个词,而且美国商标局也批准了其他包含“Box”的商标。我们聘请了律师,并回复Box.com,表示我们将继续使用AI Box这个名字。我们认为Box.com不能垄断所有包含“Box”的商标,尤其是在AI Box中,“Box”是词语的后半部分。此外,Box和Dropbox之间也存在类似的诉讼先例,最终他们达成了和解。我相信我们有充分的理由继续使用我们的名称,并希望与Box保持良好的关系。
