Not everyone likes a pun, especially RZA.

The Wu-Tang Clan member, otherwise known as Robert Diggs, is taking legal action against a Brooklyn dog-walking company for violating the hip hop group's copyright with their name, reports the The New York Daily News.

Woof-Tang Clan, which operates out of Brooklyn, has been accused of using an appropriation of the Staten Island group's name and logo.

Diggs has owned the "Wu-Tang" and "Wu-Tang Clan" trademarks since Feb. 24, 2009, but Woof-Tang Clan filed for its own trademark on June 8, 2017. According to recently filed court papers unpacked by the Daily News, Diggs says this is a violation of his registered trademarks, and that the group's name and logo have been “unmistakably associated” with the group since the 1990s.

Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
