Apple Threatens Site For Highlighting A Product Flaw
Published Sunday, May 14, 2006 by Technology Monster.| Now Apple has sent a letter demanding that one of the pictures be taken down because it is a copyrighted image. What's concerning the company, most likely, is not that the copyright was violated, but that the image is evidence that some poor manufacturing resulted in overheating. Now, because they've resorted to legal measures, the images are everywhere and they look like bullies who are unconcerned about product quality. |

The school may be bolstered in their claims that MySpace is a bandwidth hog by the fact that some Apple retail stores are also banning the site, using the same excuse. |
