Hermès 赢得 MetaBirkin NFT 商标诉讼

新型数字艺术 NFT 不受法律保护？

约在 1 年前，Hermès 对 MetaBirkin NFT 的创作者 Mason Rothschild 提出起诉，称后者推出的 MetaBirkin 非法使用品牌 BIRKIN 商标和 BIRKIN 商业外观。这场持续一年的商标之战在日前落下帷幕：Hermès 在审判中胜诉，陪审团裁定 Mason Rothschild 需要给约 133,000 美元的赔偿金。

期间 Hermès 的律师认为 Rothschild 的 NFT 与其说是艺术表现，不如说是试图从 Hermès 品牌名望和吸引力中获利，皆因 Rothschild 曾表示想通过炒作资本来赚取大笔资金。同时因 NFT 作为新型艺术，MetaBirkin NFT 又是首个以虚拟艺术涉嫌商标侵权和稀释为中心的案件，法院曾指出「各方不同意 MetaBirkin NFT 是艺术表现作品的程度，但无可争议的是…MetaBirkin NFT，包括相关图像，至少在某些方面是艺术表现作品」，这种模棱两可的态度也是 Rothschild 败诉的原因之一，而美国宪法的第一修正案是否对 NFT 进行保护还有待商榷。
