"Little frog” & “criminal” = political banter?. Interestingly, the court did not find the words “little frog” or “criminal” to be hate speech — recognising these as ordinary political insults or allegations, which still fall under protected expression.

Does calling someone a "#cockroach" constitute hate speech, as opposed to calling them a #littlefrog and #criminal?. 📌SA Court has HELD that calling someone a "cockroach" in a political context constitutes hate speech, citing it's genocidal history. #FreeSpeech vs #HateSpeech

The Smart Trademark Checklist. ✅ Do a full search (not just a Google search!).✅ Choose a strong, unique name.✅ File under the correct class(es).✅ Understand your jurisdiction.✅ Prep for opposition.✅ Oppose smartly — with evidence.✅ Negotiate before you litigate. Bundle up.

5️⃣Hire an expert!!.Trademark law is complex and full of hidden pitfalls. Whether you're registering or opposing a mark, one wrong step can cost you more than just your brand name — it could cost you your entire market position.

4️⃣Consider Negotiation b4 Litigation. Not every trademark conflict has to end in court. Sometimes, the smarter move is to reach out & negotiate.

3️⃣Gather strong evidence!!. You’ll need to prove prior use of the mark, brand confusion, reputation/damage. So prepare and gather your evidence: Screenshots, invoices, ads, social media posts, reviews and feedback,market research— get them ready.

2️⃣Be time conscious. Timing is everything.Opposition periods are short. In Uganda, a trademark application can be opposed within 60 days of its publication in the Gazette. Miss the time window, and you might be stuck challenging it later (which is harder + costlier).
