Johnson stated:
约翰逊表示:
“UD has subsequently issued a press release ‘pledging’ its first patent to the Web3 Domain Alliance, an industry group founded and run by Unstoppable Domains. We appreciate the sentiment behind this, but regrettably, press releases are not legally binding.”
“UD 随后发布了一份新闻稿,‘承诺’将其第一项专利授予 Web3 域联盟,这是一个由 Unstoppable Domains 创立和运营的行业组织。我们赞赏这背后的情绪,但遗憾的是,新闻稿不具有法律约束力。”
Also, the ENS Labs is ready to oppose this patent, which it feels is totally derivative of its own innovations; a stance it is able and prepared to show, Johnson cautioned.
此外,ENS 实验室已准备好反对这项专利,它认为该专利完全是其自身创新的衍生品;约翰逊警告说,它有能力并准备表明立场。
