Google files claims against Youview service

Google is seeking to shut down the Youview internet television project. The reason for this is that the project's name is confusingly similar to the popular video hosting site YouTube.

Information about this appeared on the website Intellectual Property Owner, whose area of ​​activity is the protection of intellectual property of copyright holders.

Copyright experts comment that the use of the word "You" could create a subconscious connection between the two services. Therefore, if Google wants to shut down the service, it could do so without much difficulty.

It is possible that Google will require the project owners to simply change the name.
