McDonald's (and McDonalds.com.au) Offers now Banned on OzBargain

Any posting to McDonald's and offer links to McDonalds.com.au are now banned on OzBargain.

I received an email from McDonald's Australia's Vice President this morning that OzBargain "is currently displaying McDonald's register trademarks without permission". All previous McDonald's offers are requested to be removed from OzBargain. While OzBargain is a user-generated content website, all uploads by members still comprise a breach. Therefore I do not wish to risk any future issues, I am now banning McDonald's from OzBargain completely.

McDonald's did mention that "in the future they may wish to utilise OzBargain themselves for the benefit of its members" so I guess they may officially post offers here (but unfortunately no one else can).

  guess that's why its not mentioned who is giving away the glass in the titles or description.. only the store profile gives it away. Which is a fail in my book.

  So McDonald's gets a free positive ad on OzBargain, and their only response is to lawyer up? I wonder if they realise how foolish they look.
  
  Sorry, I should have put a little (R) and (TM) after McDonald's. Can't be too careful…

  Wonder why people bother getting them with their meals if they are just going to dump them. At least you saved them from landfill. I thought they'd only give them out if the customer said they actually wanted it at order time.
  - itsross on 20/07/2012 - 13:03 ¶
    
    They just hand them to everyone.. They're probably instructed to do so, as it's basically an advertising flyer printed on glass!
    - daydream on 20/07/2012 - 13:37 ¶
      
      Yes, the glasses look a bit tacky with "proud partner" and the sports pic but i guess they have to make the most of their Olympic sponsorship. The classic style were better or if they had these and these like McD in other countries

- MajorN on 20/07/2012 - 10:36 ¶
  
  On each glass, one "side" has a picture of an olympic sport (like the football one, etc) and the other "side" has that coca cola logo.
  
  So in those pictures, they've photoshopped out the reverse "side" of the glasses, and have used green cup's flipside coke logo to illustrate what each cup looks like.
  
  The real question is - which sport is on the green cup? (Maybe running?)
  - kammo on 20/07/2012 - 12:41 ¶
    
    ok, thanks. i don't care for those sport pictures. i'll give this one a miss.

There is something called fair dealing in Australian copyright laws. Maybe whoever freaks about McDonalds threatening legal action should check those out first.
