Introduction
Trademark protection carries with it a broad scope of considerations, incorporation the social divergence of merchants and the general view of consumers' independence. Considering the social and racial justice on the immoral, scandalous, or disparaging remarks, the government regulation on trademarks is better placed to regulate the independence of the various brand. Due to independence exploitation within the multiple trades, the government should define the content displayed and portrayed in the media. It is the ultimate way of curtailing the excessive use of the freedom to corrupt the trading field using powerful illusions and abnormal presentations in the market sectors.
Cases of racial injustice have erupted not once under the free-market trademark, which has led to the manipulated presentation of trades in an unrealistic manner (Acluva, 2015). Various firms have made the extent of majoring their advertisements based on racial grounds, which may prove ineffective in any given undertaking. This has eventually led to peace disruption in various states as the minority group tries to regain their trade power in the market. Having such an approach, there would be flaws and loopholes to cover when it comes to the free-market approach.
Trademark Restriction through the government will give room to allowing that the contents are not racially displayed or subject to a specific group (Spotify, 2020). Having well-defined restrictions will enable every trader to adhere to the unwavering rules and regulations, which may significantly impact the peaceful market progression (Parker, 2003).
