Tech your username December 30, 2020 Judge Rodney Smith of the Southern District of Florida granted most of software company Corellium’s summary judgment claims against tech giant Apple in an opinion issued on Monday. The case concerned whether Corellium’s product, software that allows the creation of a virtual instance of Apple’s iOS operating system, violates Apple’s copyrights. The judge found that the defendant’s use of Apple code was fair, and declined to grant summary judgment on a Digital Millennium Copyright Act claim. According to the ruling, the product is designed “to provide an environment in which technology security researchers can conduct research with features of interest to those researchers.” Users of Corellium’s software cannot make calls or use a camera, for example. The judge also recounted that Apple was in talks to acquire Corellium, but the deal ultimately did not come to fruition.
