Man & Machine sued CBS and Apple, accusing them of misappropriating the rights to use the name “Mighty Mouse” in the IT field. Recall that before releasing its innovative mouse, Apple agreed to use the name “Mighty Mouse” with the CBS film company, in which this name was used for a powerful mouse, a hero of popular cartoons.
Man & Machine vs CBS and Apple
Man & Machine claims that CBS did not have the right to authorize Apple in this regard, since in the computer sphere all rights to the name “Mighty Mouse” do not belong to the famous film company. Under this name, Man & Machine launches its own product - a waterproof, and chemically protected optical mouse. In general, Apple lawyers just bought the rights from the wrong company, and now they will have to correct their mistakes in court.
