The Philadelphia Business Journal reports that a Philadelphia Insurance Brokerage won an $18 million dollar copyright infringement lawsuit against a competitor and former employee.
The former employee had taken proprietary sales manuals and copied them for his new company while removing language that mentioned his previous employer. He had also distributed the manual to all his employees under the new company’s name.
Ebooks and web pages seem particularly vulnerable to theft online.
Hopefully the thieves will be watching.
