I remember learning that trademarks that have been genericized (like Band-Aid, Popsicle, Velcro, Clorox, etc) are at risk of losing their trademark or copyright.

Can someone explain to me how exactly does this work? Cause i never really understood this

    No, this is just a legal question about the degree to which companies are allowed to restrict their competitors’ marketing.
