Samsung has become the latest company to distance itself from the letter ‘Z’ by rebranding its Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 phones.

The letter ‘Z’ was cancelled after it was linked with support for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Earlier this week, the German Embassy tweeted that security forces are “keeping an eye on the use of the symbol” and that “anyone publicly approving the war may be liable to prosecution in Germany.”

The Ukrainian government also recently called for the global “criminalization” of the letter in the context of it being used to support Russia’s actions.

After Zurich Insurance Group dropped the letter ‘Z’ from their branding, technology giant Samsung is following suit.

The company’s foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3, are being renamed in Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia.

They are now being listed on Samsung’s website as Galaxy Fold 3 and Galaxy Flip 3, a change that may be implemented in other countries.

Lithuania recently announced plans to punish individuals and businesses that display the letter ‘Z’ with 500 euro fines.

“The Korean brand is probably dropping the letter Z in solidarity with the Ukrainian people, considering the markets where the name change is in effect,” Android Headlines reported.

Whether Vladimir Putin will now consider removing all Russian forces from Ukraine in response to Samsung removing a letter from their website remains to be seen.

Mass backlash has ensued after a CNN report accused white people of using ‘digital blackface’ by posting memes of black people’s reactions as a way of expressing their feelings about situations.

In the piece, headlined What’s ‘digital blackface?’ And why is it wrong when White people use it, CNN writer John Blake states the following:

Blake argues that such memes and gifs are “radicalized reactions,” and that while black people “get a pass” for using them, white people posting them have “inadvertently perpetuated one of the most insidious forms of contemporary racism.”

Blake goes on to declare that the use of the memes by whitey is a “modern-day repackaging of minstrel shows.”

Yeah… no:

And then the inevitable happened:

Time to call the meme police?
