Controversy

In April 2011, the company took legal action to prevent a collective of radical media organisations from using the trademarked phrase "radical media" to promote their upcoming "Radical Media Conference" in London, which was consequently renamed to the "Rebellious Media Conference". On 3 May 2011, a group held a demonstration outside @radical.media's London offices. Protestor Ewa Jasiewicz said the company had "locked off the term 'radical media' away from anybody else using it, including activists who really do make radical media."
