There is outrage in the Mexico community after a photographer attempted to trademark the term 'Boudoir' and got Meta to delete his competitors' accounts.
Photographer Claims Rights to ‘Boudoir’ to Shut Down Competitors on FacebookThe Mexican photo community is up in arms after a photographer and his wife claimed to have trademarked “Boudoir” and took down scores of photographer’s pages on Facebook and Instagram that mentioned the term “boudoir.”
“Having a registration gives you the exclusivity of using that name or signs to differentiate yourself from the competition,” Lara first wrote on Facebook. “It is important that you do not change the name again because right in the message that Facebook sends they mention that if there is information again, they will definitively cancel your accounts,” he writes.Conversations between Lara and another boudoir photographer.
In other words, while Lara and his wife may have a claim to the name “Boudoir in Mexico” they cannot shut down photographers such as one called “Victoria Boudoir” who had her Facebook page deleted by the Machiavellian duo.“What is being done on Meta is unethical,” she says. For what they have done, Lara has found his sponsors queuing up to drop him. Foto Distribuidora Vyorsa, a major photography store in Mexico,“Given the controversy that has been generated with the photographer Jorge Lara, we have decided to cancel all collaboration with the aim that the affected parties find a prompt solution to their requests,” it writes.
“We accept the way in which the protection of the brand was made with the Meta platform, but we were always open and respectful with those who came to ask about their accounts and were released in a positive and timely manner.” Lara writes.
