Apple Triumphs Over Lawsuit Accusing 'Tetris' Documentary of Copying Journalist's Book
Apple has successfully defended itself against a lawsuit filed by tech journalist Dan Ackerman, who claimed that Apple’s ‘Tetris’ documentary on Apple TV+ was substantially similar to his 2016 book, ‘The Tetris Effect.’ U.S. District Judge Katherine Failla ruled in favor of Apple, determining that the book and movie were not similar enough to support Ackerman’s allegations. Ackerman alleged that he had sent a pre-release copy of his book to the Tetris Company, which then allegedly used his work as the basis for the screenplay. Despite this, Judge Failla concluded that since ‘The Tetris Effect’ is a non-fiction book, the defendants were entitled to use the facts presented in it without infringing on Ackerman’s unique expression.
