Apple is no exception and thus another lawsuit has been filed against the legendary company this time for an image used in
iPhone and Apple TV ads, reportedly taken from a Colorado photographer.
In the lawsuit Louis Psihoyos said that Apple uses images of a silhouetted person sitting in a chair surrounded by banks of television screens “nearly identical or substantially similar to the plaintiff’s copyrighted image”.
He says that Apple spoke with him over a licensing deal for the image, but they weren’t able to agree on terms and then Apple used a “nearly identical” image.
