I'VE BEEN ROBBED 

So fast

Now we need to rob castify 😂

Bless you dbrand

Casetify products are super expensive as well

Amazing! Lol

@@dertythegrower … how on earth am I a bot, just asking…

the @seed channel was hacked, there is an archive of the channel page and it was called "melissalwin" or something back then

if you get your products made in china, this is extremely common

Indeed says a lot about the internal culture of that company

They have, small creators have been getting ripped off for years

Most people unfortunately don’t care about ip theft so long as they’re benefiting.

Yep all corporations lie steal and cheap .Samsung and Apple your guilty to

Lie steal and cheat*

@@Jonnyx180 The way of the Chinese

How about when the US Federal government does the same thing? Can you sue them? But that will be after you have gone to jail.

@@ladyrose3285 You quite literally can sue the US federal government, and winning those suits is not uncommon at all.

When you've already sent the lawyers all the receipts they need to take Casetify to the cleaners, you can bask in the calm before the storm.

He's calm because he knows he's about to become unbelievably rich from the lawsuit.

dBrand twitter account already posted a pic of the file that being submitted to federal court. He's going to bring in a shit ton of cash, so, of course he's calm

@@MK_2023. He already is much more wealthy than the average person, and he obviously doesn't care.

@@JaySilva88 yep, I know. But now he's going to become stupidly rich.

It's informing us of the copyright infringement, and also a 13 minute ad for D-Brand's cases. Win-win.

His name is Zach

You don’t become a billion dollar company without screwing people over

I mean he did throw one down at 5:01 😂

I don't see this as a middle finger to everyone ever existed.

I’ve never been tempted to buy Dbrand but I just purchased a few of these. Fight the good fight!

They noticed some of the obvious ones which according Zack & I'm betting those were purposely placed & made obvious to throw off any would be thieves of the hidden ones.

kind of makes you wonder why there is nothing on the docket ...

I'm not an IP attorney, but I guess the fact that they tried to replace some of the Easter eggs could weigh in the balance to prove they knew they are copying and stole dbrand/JRE designs.

Summary judgement win in the future

They will settle out of court if at all. They already made their money off the theft and will just continue to do it.

Millionaires robbing millionaires. Rich people's problems.@@zack9912000

​@@Napertif it doesn't mean jackshit, then you're probably living under the rock. Yeah, in the law it isn't, but this video will raise the awareness about this company, so more people would stop buying their products, meaning less income, meaning a hit to the wallet, etc

%100

Money trumps all

Hehehe, this is good! 😂

That's so cool lmao 😂

Now do a redacted version with some easter eggs and watch them steal your idea again 🤣

OH NAH

Hahaha love that.. a skin of the settlement/judgement haha

True, in history! Period!

After watching this video, it is evident that Casetify will experience a significant surge in traffic on website , and some of these visitors may convert into sales. I suspect that there might be a secret collaboration between D-Brand, Jerry, and Casetify. Upon viewing the video, I promptly visited Casetify's website and ordered two cases.

Reminds me of the special Semi collins some of the Lyric websites used to catch Google copying their shit of Google old Lyric search feature they had.

This is part of the reason why I love inside jokes and easter eggs in products. It's also a fingerprint. I know in the auto industry there's a growing trend to add them to windshields and official parts so that way owners can also spot aftermarket replacement parts.

@scott8919 Toyota has an etched 2D(an industrial version of a QR code) on all their parts that, internally, can tell you who touch that part practically every step of the manufacturing process.

Google has streets, towns, mountains etc added to prevent direct copies for this exact reason

old paper map companies used to add phantom streets so they could call out their competitors for stealing their maps, exactly the same way DBrand figured this one out.

yes but he will definitely build a production facility for his vehicle that he is been selling, It's a win win

Why 9000 haha

Casetify should be paying the legal fees

@@zakirsiddiqui1Why would he have to pay their legal fees? WTF are you on about?

True, this is state of the art marketing, though not primarily for a product but rather for an action Still faszinating though

Hope Dbrand finds out about this too to help out those small creators

I've heard that too but Casetify doesn't care about it. 🤷🏽‍♀ Shame on them.

i would donate to f with them

Oddly enough, this feels like it's going to be a long trial. Not because of the judgement but because of trying to get all the other people they have stolen from At the end of the day, why am I not surprised another big company is getting success off the backs of the regular guy

oohh this has the potential to become a class-action lawsuit

Hey! How are you.

When Google Maps used to rely on TeleAtlas data, they got hit by this (TeleAtlas, and therefore, Google); several map companies had their data illegally copied by TA and then used by Google. Google always took action when notified, but still...

Map makers and dictionary publishers have all done this in the past. Any time the data set is too big to manually verify it's done to trap those that copy... Long may it continue I say...

This is so interesting to me cuz ive never heard of trap streets but i HAVE heard of something called "Paper Towns" which basically have the exact same function!

Not all map makers actually, those works with government are obligated to never ever make any change than what's in the real world.

I worked with the Dutch government on mapping streets. When suddenly we had a suspicion. So, we added some bikelines and paths that wouldn't disrupt your navigator, but would signal to us, that they used illegal data. And yep, we caught them. So, what was the issue? Public funded data cannot be used for commercial purposes. These companies were selling maps based on public funded data.

Yes

So well done that casetify is probably gonna steal it.

I love his videos he rocks

Well this is a bit of a surprise. Didn't expect to see you here, lol. What's up Fonz? Or Gabe, whoever runs the channel lol.

He did mention _Home Alone_, so now I’m really scared.

man these comments are on point

You do realize Casetify is a chinese company right which probably means their copyright laws aren't any where like the us

Sup, Jaeger. Love your vids.

You crazy? This is as close to hopping mad as Zack gets.

of course he had a different reaction when he FIRST noticed that theft

This is the expected reaction of someone who do things the right way and has nothing to be afraid of =) pure honesty

when he lowers his voice and shouts out that casetify will “probably just right click and save” is probably the most scary calm-mad ive seen him i’d feel frightened

Zack is the GOAT

Are you from the US? Your state Attorney General could help. I'm not saying they would take the case to court, but they have legal resources available.

@@westvirginiaglutenfreepepp7006 From England, UK. Thanks for advice though

Rip

Zack*

Some law firm will take your case for free and take money when they win the case and cut percentage off the paid settlement

dictionary makers did this too with fake words

Aka watermarks.

Poor people who decide to explore those fake towns.

@@chrisray1567 no...Paper Towns. it isn't a watermark, its a town on a map that is not there in real live "Sarcastic Loser Montana" in small print so if another map maker stole the map and reprinted it the copied map would have "Sarcastic Loser Montana" and the real map maker would know- this is my stolen map. it has nothing to do with Watermarks.

incorrect, its a form of watermark. the function of a fake town and a watermark is to determine if something has been stolen. it is absolutely related to watermarks, one could easily argue directly and indirectly. @@dymetex6360

Zack is always being vigilant and remind us to be transparent about his stuff. There's nothing to hide. Dude's just simply down-to-earth

Transparency, nice

transparency, hahaha

'transparency' that's the word you chose, lmao.

They’re a Chinese company, they literally don’t care about anyone else’s IP and are fine with being thieves

I doubt it. Several of these Chinese companies steal most of their designs and product ideas. They will pay whatever it takes to make this one go away and move on to their next scam.

The one person who got fired is obviously not the main culprit but some unfortunate "new guy" as their black sheep.

Could have very likely been their designer. A lot of overseas designers prioritise speed over morals and authenticity, ripping off stuff from Google images or competitors.

when your classmate copies your answers and your name...

Zack

his name is Zack

He won't be able to do much about it outside of the US. This is very common from Chinese manufacturing

@@zack9912000 casetify is from hong kong where the "usual" copyright laws apply

@@Senkothepamperfoxit’s cuz of „Jerry RIG…“, „RIG them up“. the joke is supposed to hit more atleast i think that! :)

i am so sorry for your loss hopefully jerry can avenge you

If you have any evidence left consider taking this to court. This case will be enough to establish a pattern of behavior on "their" products. It could be much easier to succeed with a lawsuit now that they are proven to have copied other brands now.

I think it would help the lawsuit that Jerry started if you joined forces by combining the evidence you have, as the previous comments said it would help to create a kind of pattern.

Seriously if you have something it will help the case

Echoing what others have said above. If you have evidence, join forces with Zack.

ifixit for example

Just check where they're from. This is the way they do everything in that part of the world.

I've seen a lot of ads for anime specific "inspired" cases that are just stolen designs from actual artists. Many of them aren't in the position to launch a lawsuit, so they get away with it, basically.

By what I said earlier I did not mean the cases but the corporations.

Only in dystopian hellscapes where people have to pay for them, themselves. A functioning social safety net and a medical system will take care of that cost for you. I hear my "american" readers all chime in: "But i don't want to pay for someone elses health care"... Imagine what purchasing health insurance does.. It sure doesn't cover your health care for as long as you have to suffer heavy copays... What it actually does, is PAY FOR SOMEONE ELSES HEALTH CARE..

@@eidodk Agreed! It's disgusting. I know a person in my group who is actually paralyzed from the waist down but insurance won't cover a chair. This should never happen. America is hell for those of us who are poor, disabled, etc.

@@eidodk Yeah. Health insurance is done incorrectly here, you're completely correct. But I also don't want to pay for anyone else's healthcare. The problem is healthcare was cheaper, it was more affordable. But once the government got involved HOSPITALS started charging A SHITTONNE to make double the profit. Before Obamacare, the only thing that was tough to get was surgery. But at least you weren't taking out what student loans are for that.

@@StephenFasciani You're part of the problem though. The notion of "not wanting to pay for someone elses healthcare" is exactly what's wrong with the US. That's the quintessential idea of what taxes are for - SERVICES RENDERED TO THE PEOPLE PAID FOR BY THE PEOPLE. The US is such a fearful place, you spend the taxes on the millitary instead. The best evidence for it being a fearful place, is that homeowners thinks they need guns to protect themselves - That is ONLY an issue in places where the country is at war with itself. The problem was NEVER the hospitals, it was the insurance companies. The "free competition" between insurance companies is what has created the hellscape. It's now an insurance INDUSTRY, with billions and other billions of revenue for stock holders. A state controlled health industry would be a zero sum industry, in which the ONLY thing that is necessary, is to balance the budgets. If $10 goes out, $10 has to go in. Until your country starts thinking more like a group, than a country of individuals, it will only get worse.

@@sys-administratorAnd that is exactly wrong. You call the WMO Helpdesk, and put in an application. Sure - you'll not get a free pick on all shelves of wheelchairs, but if you can show a specific need for a specific model, it would likely be provided for you.

Programmers will do the same thing with their code, too. Companies will sometimes ask for a demo of a program and copy it to avoid paying the programmer, so including an Easter egg like that is a great way to win a lawsuit.

That is very interesting. Yeah since no ones gonna make the exact same, it makes it very original. I got to remember this xD

@@josephhenderson2538it’s different with something you have created by yourself from the ground up instead of editing something that already exists.

Yep. "Paper Street".

That's what easter eggs have always been for from the beginning of art, it amazes me that fanboys and girls think they are for them like some kind of inside joke they're in on.

@@neemanon And he is going to get more money after this.

@@tqlla ok

With all that experience and an army of lawyers they are surely ready to file one of their own

@@OneSlowCbr Sony didn’t like them making the playstation dark plates. They sent cease and desist.

​@@OneSlowCbrthey have been sued multiple times for copying the shape and texture of the products they skin. A prime example was the PS5 darkplates dbrand sold. Sony sued them for the triangle, square, circle, and X texture embedded in the darkplates.

@@nathanielhill8156 upvoted, but i mean it's different copying the iconic rectangles, circles and triangles of sony which have been known for 2 decades and sony being a multibillion dollar company at this point (?) and different copying from Jerry and DBrant inside jokes and easter eggs and the design and work they've put themselves for many days or months.

mainly because they have a huge team of lawyers which will come up with all kind of bs to slow down the process and make this lawsuit as expensive and as slow as possible

You mean for... Zack? :P Because Jerry is not his name ;)

Zack winds up owning casetify. lol

@@pksindias the design wasn't 100% taken from what's actually on the inside. Did you not watch the video?

​@@pksindiaslooks like you commented first before watching video.

Put something in the case just in case you need to have a case involving another case.

Case closed! 😄

Point in case

Like the fake map locations cartographers used too put in for the same reason

Yes! imagine being stupid enough to steal an image and not edit those parts out. they are toast.

Same

Same. Sadly, I think the society doesn't care if the product is stolen or not. There are lots of videos supporting buying fake Samsung/Apple/.... without caring that they just supported stealing 10000 hours of work.

I encourage you to watch some of his tear down videos. I was recommended of the iPhone 15 one recently and was genuinely surprised of the quality in his work and videos. Truly an amazing channel.

It's a sticker, not a case. They copied a sticker. You can take a picture of the inside of your phone, print it on a sticker background and you've stolen his product 😄

@@Been.Here.Since.2007 Wrong, JerryRig and Dbrand own the rights to "their exact image" that they created. If you take a pic with your phone it's not the same image. Just an image of the same product. He literally explained and showed how they are exact copies, just of terrible quality.

Now you know why dBrand referenced Hitman. The layers to that one simple statement are very deep.

This is the first time I realized his name is not Jerry. :D

Fear the quiet nice guy. He will destroy your world, and have you thanking him for it.

demons run when a good man goes to war

it was like those videos that are visually pleasing to watch because they do some animation so perfect. I felt the same way watching this video

Yeah

It’s not as sure as it should be. Depends who has better lawyers.

10'000h?? 🤣🤣If you want to make money with a cover photo that the Chinese had 15 years ago.

@@erg7732 A better lawyer would know that it’s a complete loss for casetify from the get go.

If he has copyrighted the design, I have a hard time seeing how they would loose, even if the laywer is a literal donkey, they just have to show the image and ask the company to explain how these details ended up on their products. So unless the judge is like a complete idiot/bribed, they can’t loose. The only real defense I see would be to blame the employees, arguing that they have been tricked by whoever actually designed these. But hopefully Legal eagle will do a video on this soon :D

This is actually something older than you expect. Maps used to do it add an extra town here and there that doesn't exist) so anyone that copies would tell on themselves. Phone Books also did the same - adding people and numbers that don't exist - for much the same reason.

Also casetify took down the inside out brand that they were touting.

they instantly had me see right through castify

pretty sure they did this to protect against this exact scenario. by adding Easter eggs it's easier to proof it's your IP

This very move has helped many a company in court, especially in program theft lawsuits.

camera thing too and low quality image proves it all

Companies publishing dictionaries and such do the same thing, they'll sneak in a few fake words they invented no one would ever notice, so if it shows up in another company's dictionary there's really no other explanation.

nothing will happen to them. This is so common in China manufacturing its accepted practice there.

@@zack9912000you say nothing will happen, but Jerry Rig has a massive online following, and this news will spread like wildfire, so even if Castify don’t lose in court, they will lose their entire reputation and brand image will be destroyed. That will be a death sentence for the company

@@zack9912000 yeah they will just pay few millions and keep doing it , its same with their mobile games its worth it to pay millions in lawsuits and keep your game up and just change the name than to stop stealing and invest yourself .

​@@Tetrathegod or they’ll “go out of business” and suddenly reappear with a different name, rinse and repeat

Even if whatever they have to pay is a slap in the wrist's worth and they keep doing it, their product is still too low quality to really compete and the money is going to help Not A Wheelchair and get a bunch of people free wheelchairs.
