Apple vs NSO: What can copyright do for you?
Episode 300
Published 4 years, 3 months ago
Description
the lawsuit is based on CFAA, not on copyright. We apologize for this enormous oversight.
Josh and Kurt talk about Apple suing NSO using a copyright claim as their vehicle. Copyright is often used as a reason to bring lawsuits, even when it doesn't always make sense. Copyright has been used by open source to expand rights, and many companies to restrict rights. It's a very odd law sometimes. At the end of the day it seems the only real path forward for a problem like NSO is up to governments to protect their citizens.
