Apple a acţionat în instanţă o firmă mică cu 5 angajaţi deoarece aceasta are drept logo o pară

Diverse

Se pare că Apple nu acceptă firme pe piaţă care să aibă drept logo diverse fructe care să aducă cât de cât aminte de faimosul măr muşcat. Nu spun eu asta, ci unul dintre fondatorii Prepear, companie care a fost acţionată în instanţă de către Apple deoarece logo-ul său în formă de pară ar semăna prea mult cu logo-ul Apple şi ar aduce o ofensă celui din urmă.

Dear Instagram Friends- I NEED YOUR HELP! I know there are a lot of heavy things going on in the world right now, and this is nothing in comparison, but I need your help in a situation that is affecting me, my family, and my coworkers. Please help! Many of you know that I started a business called Prepear almost 5 years ago. It is an app that you can store all your recipes in one place, plan your meals, make grocery lists, and get your groceries delivered all in one place. Recently @apple yes, The trillion dollar Apple, has decided to oppose and go after our small business’ trademark saying our pear logo is too close to their apple logo and supposedly hurts their brand? This is a big blow to us at Prepear. To fight this it will cost tens of thousands of dollars. The CRAZY thing is that Apple has done this to dozens of other other small business fruit logo companies, and many have chosen to abandon their logo, or close doors. While the rest of the world is going out of their way to help small businesses during this pandemic, Apple has chosen to go after our small business. I’m not trying to get anyone to stop using or buying Apple products. I feel a moral obligation to take a stand against Apple’s aggressive legal action against small businesses and fight for the right to keep our logo. We are defending ourselves against Apple not only to keep our logo, but to send a message to big tech companies that bullying small businesses has consequences. HOW YOU CAN HELP: 1 Sign the petition (link in my bio or in my stories) 2 Share that same link on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc. http://chng.it/QPd2mRYW #savethepearfromapple

Compania Prepear este o microîntreprindere cu 5 angajaţi ce a lansat o aplicaţie culinară ce ajută utilizatorii să descopere reţete noi, să îşi plănuiască mesele sau să îşi facă liste de cumpărături. Aplicaţia este disponibilă atât în App Store, cât şi în Google Play.

Reprezentanţii Prepear au lansat o petiţie pe change.org cu ajutorul căreia speră să îi convingă pe cei de la Apple să renunţe la acţiunea în instanţă. Se pare că micul business a fost afectat destul de serios de pandemie, astfel că o eventuală dispută cu Apple în instanţă i-ar putea aduce falimentul.

Personal mă duce puţin cu gândul la logo-ul Apple, însă aşa arată şi o pară:
