Apple, the company, wants rights to the image of apples, the fruit, in Switzerland—one of dozens of countries where it’s flexing its legal muscles.

    It’s crazy that a company would sue over things that preceded its existence, but not hard to believe when you have limitless money and an army of eager lawyers.

      And it doesn’t hurt to have hordes of people who just eat up anything they put out

        What do you think if they put out apples?

    In this market of efficiency, Apple shareholders should push to trim these people that are wasting resources to pursue useless IP hedgemony.

    Replaced with archived link to bypass paywall.

      Hmm still takes me to the unarchived one. I wonder if link updates don’t propagate across instances.

          @BrikoX @Johnnypneumoniac I get a “secure connection failed” error in my browser for this link

            Something on your end is blocking the connection then. You can try https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wired.com%2Fstory%2Fapple-vs-apples-trademark-battle%2F

                Archive.ph requires the use of EDNS extension by your DNS resolver, which passes your IP address on to the remote server. Cloudflare doesn’t support that. If you run a pihole or other resolver (or have access to your hosts file/not on unrooted mobile device) you can probably set the address manually to 193.233.203.196

                $ dig +short archive.ph @1.1.1.1
                217.197.116.88
                $ dig +short NS archive.ph|head -1
                mick.archive.li.
                $ dig +short archive.ph @mick.archive.li
                193.233.203.196

    Part of me wants the apple farmers in Switzerland to leverage their preexisting rightful claim on all things (fruit) apple and go into the computer hardware business to take on Apple, just out of spite.
