Bullies?

Had started to do tee shirts with a Porsche theme
on Cafe Press. No Porsche logo, just some words
and drawings. Was contacted by the overzealous
legal team from Porsche that I had to remove
them. Talked to them, offered to do a license,
etc. No go. Removed the ‘store’ from Cafe Press.
May I say how disappointed in Porsche’s reaction.
I made NO money from this. I did it for my love
of the marque. I had offered to compromise in any
way I could. I wonder how all the other
companies, people, etc. manage to produce
Porsche-related merchandise from tee shirts to
autoparts, non-Porsche authorized car sales,
etc.?
Isn’t our society litigious enough without it hurting the people that help boost the product that you’re supposed to be protecting. Very disappointing.
