I haven't found a second source to verify this story, so treat with a grain of salt, but here goes: According to Yahoo! News, Homeland Security agents paid a business call on a toy shop and ordered a specific toy removed from shelves. Why, you may be wondering, and what does this have to do with Tech IP? Well, it seems that the cause of the action was an alleged trademark infringement complaint. Never mind that the complaint was likely bogus, can anyone give me a good reason why the Department of Homeland Security needs to have an "intellectual property rights center"?
