Google recently changed its email service's logo, only to change it again. But this time, their logo looks like the letter M and this has caused a huge controversy.

Mahdi Munshi, a 24-year-old  Bangladeshi-origin boy from Bangladesh, recently claimed ownership of Gmail service! He claimed that he had changed the logo of Gmail into letter M as his name starts with M. In one of his Facebook posts, he wrote, "I am delighted to announce that I have bought the Gmail service of Google. After buying it, I have changed its logo into my name's first letter. Those who were wondering why Google changed its logo into the letter M, should know that, Google didn't change it, but I did. I did it to represent my name among the people of the world. I hope, this post has removed your confusion regarding the Gmail's new logo."

The unusual claim soon went viral. The claim stands as truth since Google is yet to clarify the issue.

The claim also has a solid ground in a country without intellectual property rights and loose copyright laws.

"When it was in Google's hand, we saw a huge G in the logo. Now that G is gone and has been replaced by M, meaning its ownership is up for grabs…,"Mahdi said. 

Though no official statement from Google hasn't been seen yet, this correspondent can say, "We are really proud of you, Mahdi. You have earned global recognition. It's a proud moment for all the Bangladeshis, specially whose names start with the letter M."  Would you like to see your work on the hottest page in the country?
