| Tiger Style  ![[M]av3r!cK's Avatar](http://www.erodov.com/forums/customavatars/avatar407_2.gif){kind=avatar} | Google Point Legal Finger at Goojje for Stolen Logo   Chinese copycat website Goojje has been locked onto by Google's legal cannons, having violated copyright law with a logo that heavily resemble's Google's own. The website is a play on words from Google, where the last syllables of Google, 'gle' resemble the word for 'older brother' in Chinese, 'jje' from the last syllable of Goojje resembles the Chinese word for 'older sister'. A spokeswoman for Google said yesterday that the company has merely sent an official written request that Goojje change their logo to something less similar to Google's own, given that they have protected it by trademark. Of course we are all aware that China has an awful record of protecting intellectual property rights (having already allowed pirated software, music, movies, clothing and others through their legal filters for years), and despite the recent government crackdowns on such crimes, it looks as though if Goojje don't respond then Google will be going in all guns blazing. It was less than a month ago that Google threatened to pull out of China over censorship concerns and what it said was a serious hacking incident that resulted in the theft of its intellectual property, so let us hope that this incident doesn't further fuel said fire.
