Right? All the comments here are mocking Apple for trying to own all depictions of a fruit, or make it seem like the other company had been happily using the logo for a century, but no, Apple is just trying to say they can’t use the logo they switched to in 2011 which was clearly based on the Apple logo.
- paxys 3y ago> clearly based on the Apple logo Uh, the design is clearly based on an apple, which they sell
- raldi 3y agoDo you believe it could ever be possible for a company that sells apples to design a logo based on the Apple logo?
- paxys 3y agoDo you believe that regardless of the existence of Apple a company that sells apples could want to use a generic picture of an apple as their logo?
- raldi 3y agoYes. Now would you be willing to answer my question? I'm trying to figure out whether we disagree over a matter of where precisely to draw a line, or if the very idea of the line is antithetical.
- paxys 3y agoSo yes, the difference is that you think that the fruit company logo was copied from Apple whereas I don't.
- EnergyAmy 3y ago"clearly based on" is doing a whole lot of work in your comment. I would never confuse the two.
- raldi 3y agoI said nothing about confusion. I said that in 2011, when they changed their old logo: https://photos5.appleinsider.com/gallery/54990-111552-001-previous-logo-xl.jpg https://photos5.appleinsider.com/gallery/54990-111552-001-pr... to this new one: https://photos5.appleinsider.com/gallery/54990-111553-000-lead-Logos-xl.jpg https://photos5.appleinsider.com/gallery/54990-111553-000-le... it seems to me that they were clearly using the Apple logo as their inspiration.
- EnergyAmy 3y agoI think it's pretty clear that they were using... apples as their inspiration for the new logo. That thing that they sell.
