Dismiss Church’s Trademark Lawsuit Against “Mormon Stories” Podcast, EFF Urges Court
['Cara Gagliano']

Imagine if McDonald’s could use trademark law to control how you use the term “fast food.”
We at EFF have opposed the LDS Church’s abuse of trademark law for over a decade.
Now, the LDS Church has brought a lawsuit over a podcast called Mormon Stories that examines Mormonism and Mormon culture.
Trademark law isn’t even supposed to extend to generic terms, and for good reason.
We hope the court will do so here, while also taking the opportunity to endorse the Rogers test.
