The company Psystar, producing clones of computers Mac, modified its lawsuit against Apple, reports AppleInsider. In particular, Psystar renounced Apple charges of violating antitrust laws Clayton and Sherman.
However, representatives of Psystar argue that the policy against Apple Mac OS X is a violation under such legal concepts as "the doctrine of abuse" ( "misuse doctrine"), which prevents the use of the law on copyright protection (DMCA) to deal with competitors for the limits prescribed by law framework.
Psystar argues that under the terms of use Apple controls not only software but also hardware. This allows Apple to abuse the law on the protection of copyright, without violating any article of competition law.
Recently, Apple changed its lawsuit against Psystar, further accusing the manufacturer of Mac-clones in the burglary anti-piracy protection of the operating system Mac OS X to run it on computers, issued not Apple, which violates the DMCA. According to Psystar, the accusation proves that Apple is abusing the law on copyright protection.
Recall that in April this year Psystar released a computer running Mac OS X. Apple considered this a violation of its license agreement and filed for Psystar to court, accusing the latter of copyright infringement.
