“We passed and became clear along the way,” the Altman wrote about the non -Dell. “Now he is trial in the name of the open. It is stupid, disappointing and wrong.”
Jason Rogolo was hoping that we would invest in his company IIO or get them and his efforts are quite permanent. We passed and were clean along the way.
Now he is prosecuted by the open. It’s crazy, disappointing and wrong. pic.twitter.com/k5okhglw0s

The Altman made more context (and defended efforts everywhere), and wrote that he had “spoke” with Rogolo on “repeated leaks”, and that the Altman and Openi had approved the purchase of their company a few days before the legal proceedings.
“It’s good to try hard to collect or earn money and try to make your company successful,” he wrote. “It is not good to turn a legalism when you do not get your custom. It makes a terrific view to try to help the environmental system.”
All of them said, I wish Jason and his team for the best building products. The world certainly needs more and less legal action.

Almost an hour after Altman’s tweets, Rogolo wrote on X “Here are 675 other two letter names that they can choose which we are not.”
Although the post on X was not responding directly to the Altman, it was part of a thread since the beginning of the week when he wrote why he was prosecuted.
He wrote, “You can’t start a company called ‘Apple’ or ‘Google’.
We will not allow Sam and Jonny to steal our names.

“I welcome their competition in the market, we are all trying to make dope products,” Rogolo wrote. “They just can’t use our name.”
The suit continues.
