Apple hit with $2 million iPhone lawsuit
August 22nd, 2009Photographer Louis Psihoyos is slamming Apple with a $2 million iPhone lawsuit, claiming that Apple used his image of “1000 TV’s” in promotional materials for i.TV without his consent.
“Version 1.0 of i.TV directly infringed on Mr. Psihoyos’ copyright by incorporating the 1000 TVs image without permission,” attorneys for the photographer claim in court papers filed this week in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
The lawyers say that “by commercially exploiting the plaintiff’s copyrighted image in the i.TV application” without the photographer’s consent, Apple has benefited while hurting Psihoyos.
“1000 TV’s” is an image of a person surrounded by….a bunch of TV’s. Apple apparently liked it but didn’t officially put a ring on it.
