  Consumer Viewpoint Sent to Apple Public Relations

  The below email was sent to Apple Public Relations, whose phone number may be found here:

  As a concerned consumer, Apple's choice to pursue blocking New York's trademark application for its "GreeNYC" logo, which is a green apple, appears in bad taste. It appears that Apple is going against the concept of "going green", is going against a city that is still recovering from hardships suffered during 911, and is placing unnecessary roadblocks on efforts by a city trying to do some very positive things for the environment. Please don't waste your own dollars and New York City taxpayer dollars fighting this legal battle, which will ultimately result in leaving consumers with a negative impression of Apple's commitment to the environment, and questioning Apple's priorities and motives. Unfortunately Apple did not see an opportunity here to piggy-back on New York's new green apple logo, and leverage an association between that logo and Apple's own efforts at "going green" to protect the environment and safeguard consumers' futures.

  From a consumer's point of view, I personally do not think the two apples look similar.On Apple Inc. files complaint over NYC's green branding posted 1 year, 7 months ago 8 Responses
