USPTO U.S. Patent & Trademark Office searches can be done online in seconds.
And, as someone has already commented, your Chinese contract manufacturers don't give a flying fuck.
They will rip off your design and run an 11 pm to 7 AM ghost shift manufacturing exact copies off the same machines of whatever design you gave them, and these ripoffs will appear on Amazon and TikTok Shop in a month 30% cheaper with free shipping (thanks a pantload, USPS for continuing your bullshit deal with China Post.)
You just gave me an idea: could USPS be sued for aiding theft and patent infringement, just like pharmacies were sued for distributing opioids?
Good luck suing the government
There are thousands of lawsuits filed against US government each year. No luck involved but a large law firm wouldn’t take cases that would be a waste of time, so they’d have to evaluate the chances and be motivated to fight on behalf of thousands of businesses. No different than the big law firms that won the opioid cases.
