Recently my daughter tried to order me a custom designed Pop Socket for my phone case. It was a "Q". They denied our request even though it was an original design which we ran through a copyright checker. They did this twice. They gave us no reason why it was rejected.
But, we all know why it was rejected!
Here is the owner of Pop Sockets LLC:
David Barnett is the founder and CEO of PopSockets. He was a philosophy major at Emory, a physics major at University of Colorado Boulder, received his PhD in philosophy from NYU, and from 2005-2015 was a philosophy professor at University of Colorado Boulder. His research specialized in philosophy of language and philosophy of mind, before he reached enlightenment, stopped doing philosophy, and became an entrepreneur.
