UFC Champion Ronda Rousey has been wanting to trademark her catchphrase ‘Do Nothing Bitch’ since a while now, the problem? She wants to trademark ‘DNB’ as well.
Producers and fans across have gone against Rousey, claiming DnB to be the age-old short form of Drum n Bass, a genre that has been in existence since the 80s.
Though trademark law is dense and hard to navigate, Rousey’s trademark probably won’t interfere with the acronym designating drum n bass. If anything, the rampant use of #DNB on merchandise and social media might dilute Rousey’s trademark, invalidating it. Though, that’s something for the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to figure out.
