Weird Legal Battle by Apple

Apple vs Woolworths

Apple vs Woolworths

Does the above image look alike ? Well guess what , according to modmyi.com Apple thinks that both those look alike !!! Apple is challenging Australian-based Woolworths Ltd over their corporate logo – which, if you hadn’t noticed, invokes imagery that Apple apparently believes is too close to their own logo.

Attorneys for Apple have begun a legal response against the largest supermarket chain in Australia over a logo the electronics company says is too similar to its own iconic trademark. Apple, which has a long history of defending its world-famous bitten apple logo, has decided the similarities are a little too close for comfort.

Hans Hulsbosch, the designer of the Woolworths logo, also seems to think Apple is going a little too far to protect their brand.“Based on this logic,” Hulsbosch said, “they would have to take action against every fruit-seller.” Dont give em any ideas mate…
