News

T-Mobile sues TELUS for copyright infringement. TELUS stole the 'My Faves" promotion and called it "myFaves". Seemingly, since T-Mobile didn't register that name in Canada TELUS thinks they can steal it by registering it in Canada even though T-Mobile registered it in the U.S. first. Dirty deeds done dirt cheap. Speaking of dirty deeds done dirt cheap, TELUS Idol isn't copyrighted in the U.S. - It's not even copyrighted in Canada. Does that make it free game to post on Youtube?
