Is this actively enforced in any way?
If I were him, I'd be more worried about selling the pre-modified Pro. Especially if it's being shipped internationally, there's a fair chance Apple asks U.S. customs to seize these de-facto knockoffs. And calling it 41rP0d$ / M4g$4f3 isn't going to get past anyone.

- sitic 4y agoIsn't this basically the same as selling hacked and refilled printer ink cartridges? The Supreme Court ruled against Lexmark in that case (as far as the patents are concerned, not sure if Lexmark also tried the trademark route). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impression_Prods.,_Inc._v._Lexmark_Int%27l,_Inc https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impression_Prods.,_Inc._v._Lex....
- manigandham 4y agoThey would be knockoffs if they claimed to be exactly the same as the original. What's illegal about buying modified items?
- watwut 4y agoYes, you can complain and it is enforced. But, it was not big companies conspiracy against the small ones. That part is just alternative/imaginary history based on OPs ideological outlook.
