edit: since many seem to be confused: he doesn’t use the Apple logo anywhere on his website (you can check above) or in his videos — Apple is upset because the iPhones shown in his videos have the Apple logo on the back of the device which can be seen in the video while he’s repairing it.

In the letter from Apple’s law firm, they have specifically asked him to stop repairing Apple devices.

    They sent him a letter telling him to stop using the Apple logo in his videos and to stop trying to pass his videos off as official repairs. Big whoop.

      Also the lawyers only reminded or informed him of what his own country’s penalties were for if he was found guilty of doing the thing he was clearly doing constantly on camera.

      Apple wouldn’t be putting him in jail, his breaking the law and his country would if he was found guilty. Wtf kind of article is this?

      He’s not passing them off as official repairs (although he does use genuine parts whenever those parts are still in circulation).

      Are you saying repair videos should blur the parts of the device’s enclosure where the logo appears? This seems excessive
