Back in college when I was more active on Craigslist, they called it freecycle. I always wondered why and where buy-nothing came from, as I was extremely familiar with the term freecycle already.
Well thats shitty, i also didn’t realize freecycle was an organization or entity that had legal rights to the name, thought it was similar to what I originally thought buy-nothing was, just a term used to easily describe the intention of the group.

Freecycle did the same thing a few years ago. Our local freecycle group had to change their name to Giving With Integrity.
