It seems that the Linux Foundation has decided that both “systemd” and “segmentation fault” (lol?) are trademarked by them.

    The complaint is not about the terms “systemd” and “segmentation fault.” Those are the titles of the affected artworks. Presumably the artworks themselves contain some trademarked property.

    Also, this is utterly unrelated to patents.

        Thanks for finding these. I couldn’t see them, so I assumed they were removed in response to the complaint.

        You’re right, there doesn’t appear to be anything here to object to.

      I can understand Systemd being trademarked, but does the Linux Foundation own the trademark for Systemd…? Surely not. I’d think Red Hat before I thought Linux Foundation.
