I swear, there must be software to make pseudo English phoneme strings for Chinese resellers to register as “companies” on amazon. 95% of them are ridiculous and I can’t believe a human made them.

It's a fast and cheap way to avoid running afoul of trademark laws.

  • It isn't to avoid running afoul of trademark laws, it's just that it's easy to trademark pseudorandom brand names, and Amazon upranks trademarked brands.

    • How much does it cost to trademark a brand globally? Or at least in major markets? Hiw long before someone starts trademarking uuids?
