Tetris

The Tetris Company has stated it did not grant permission for the White House to use its iconic imagery in a controversial online game called "Build the Wall." The game was part of a collection of five low-resolution arcade games released on the White House website, reportedly to promote aspects of the Trump administration's agenda. The Tetris Company clarified that it was not involved in the creation of "Build the Wall" and did not license the Tetris brand or intellectual property for its use. This statement comes in response to the game's debut, highlighting a dispute over intellectual property and the use of popular cultural elements in political contexts. The situation underscores the ongoing relevance of Tetris as a recognizable brand and the potential for its intellectual property to be subject to unauthorized use.
