feel like these situations are where something like a medium-orange flag would be helpful.

And that's how you get monstrous fuckups like Grammarly's.

Only one or two folks on the team with IP knowledge can't catch everything. If whoever handles product review doesn't spot the issue then you get "We're excited to release our new feature, Right of Publicity Violation As A Service!"

on ~2/3rds of the in-house teams I've been part of, I the only lawyer with a substantive IP background; most others had picked it up on the fly, if at all.

my experience has been that this is shockingly common - especially on smaller in-house legal teams, IP background is often lacking.

that twitter billionaire's dumbass grok image proposing oil transfer by land through what looks like oman and uae, both currently in range of iranian drones and missiles. the trucks have been replaced by a giant slip n' slide running between the ships and a caption that reads "Pour Oil into Giant Slip n' Slide"

Can this be a solution?
