@charlotte It's a trademark? Most genericized trademark of all times then.
@chjara honestly that'd probably be thermos, escalator and an entire list's worth of drugs like aspirin and heroin
@charlotte@mastodon.ml @chjara@akko.tuxcrafting.xyz stares blankly in Germany the Aspirin trademark is alive and well and to get the generic you have to ask for ASS
@chjara i mean i guess it's because it's a trademark, not really a noun group, as funny as it is for something so ubiquitous. it's also "QR-код" in russian for this reason
