Details

Steps to reproduce:
Search Microsoft Store for "Mozilla Firefox".

Actual result:
Gazillions of "Guide for Mozilla Firefox" craps are shown in the result. Some of them even have higher rank than Mozilla's official app. They are using our product name and icon. Are they trademark infringements?

Expected result:
Only Mozilla's official app should be shown in the result.

emk: Relevant People are working on this as we speak. However, this isn't a good Bugzilla ticket: it's not a technical outcome and it's a "forever war" that must be continually fought. I'm going to close this, secure in the knowledge that Mozilla's legal team are working with Microsoft to protect our name and mark(s) in the Store, and that our Marketing team are positioning the listing to rise above the "crap".

Thanks for your interest! If you're on our NDA'd Slack, ping me and I'll link to relevant discussions.
