Some time ago, Apple reportedly gave a warning letter to iPhone leakers from China. Now information is circulating that claims that Samsung is following a similar move.
One of the leaked gadgets targeted by Samsung is Max Jambor from the AllAboutSamsung site. In a tweet on his Twitter account, Jambor said that he received a claim of copyright infringement from Samsung.
"Samsung is currently starting to claim the copyright of photos and videos of their unreleased products," said Jambor in his tweet, as quoted by Android Authority, Saturday (9/7/2021).
"Some of the leaked photos will disappear in the next few days. This is just the beginning," he continued
In addition to Jambor, one of the famous gadget leakers, Evan Blass, also indicated that he will delete his post containing material about Samsung products.
In a subsequent tweet, Jambor insisted that Samsung was only going after the source who leaked the information, not the media or bloggers who reported it. The South Korean company is also only targeting those who leaked official renderings and assets before the product was launched.
Although Samsung has claimed various photos and videos of the device, leaks like this usually spread quickly. This practice also does not seem to be able to prevent the spread of rumors in text form.
This kind of move is being done by many mobile phone vendors to prevent their latest gadgets from being leaked before the official launch. Apart from Apple and Samsung, Xiaomi is also doing something similar.
Not long ago, a blogger from China apologized to Xiaomi for leaking the Mi 10 Ultra through an unboxing video. For violating the non-disclosure agreement (NDA), the blogger had to pay 1 million Yuan in compensation.
