Russian Railways Sues Apple for Copyright Infringement


Russian Railways (RZD) has sued Apple for copyright infringement, alleging illegal use of its logo in Apple's online shop. “RZD intends to protect its intellectual property, especially since the trademark is well known in the Russian Federation,” a Russian Railways representative noted.  Russian Railways alleges that its logo was used as part of a “Railway Tariff” app that allows its users to track cargo delivery costs and delivery times across Russia, and seeks approximately $65,000 in damages for the allegedly infringing use.
