    Hemlo, inventor of PWN here.

    It was a misspelling of “Owned” in a Warcraft 2 map that I made. People thought it was funny that it upset me when I noticed the typo and perpetuated the map version with the misspelling.

    “Player 1 was pwned.”

    For more Internet history facts, stay tuned.

        Are you kidding me? No way. You can’t trademark a word or a typo. That’s dumb.
