The issues for Casetify when it comes to ripping off other companies designs are mounting. To recap:
- YouTuber JerryRigEverything and dBrand are suing Casetify for blatantly ripping of the Teardown skins that JerryRigEveryting and dBrand co-created.
- Casetify responded by posting a really, really bad statement that promptly and deservedly got roasted by Twitter. Along with that they pulled their cases from their website.
- It was then discovered by dBrand that Casetify had been ripping stuff off from iFixit as well.
At the time that the iFixit discovery was made, I said this:
I’m watching to see how iFixit responds to this. As in do they sue Casetify and add to their misery. But the bottom line is that this not a good look for Casetify if this is accurate. Even if it isn’t (and to be frank, I don’t know how it can’t be accurate), the bad press that this has created means that Casetify is likely heading toward oblivion. To paraphrase Tony Stark from “The Avengers” there is no scenario where Casetify comes out on top of this situation.
Well, iFixit has posted this response on Twitter:
At this point, it isn’t clear if iFixit will sue Casetify. But if I were iFixit I would as this is going to be the easiest case to win as Casetify literally has no defence that they can mount seeing how blatant their actions were.
If I were Casetify, they should throw themselves on the mercy of dBrand and iFixit, along with whomever else they’ve stolen stuff from. Because they are going to get destroyed in court. But not before they get destroyed in the court of public opinion. And neither of those are things that they can recover from.
