Mark Spitz and Janet Evans Among 18 Olympians Suing Samsung Over Misuse of Images
April 27, 2012
"The lawsuit was filed Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court over a Facebook app called the Samsung Olympic Genome Project, in which people can see how they are connected to various Olympians."
"other swimmers listed in the lawsuit are:
Amanda Beard, Jessica Hardy, Dara Torres, Jason Lezak, Cullen Jones, Eric Shanteau, Caroline and Clark Burckle, Brooke Bennett, Kristy Kowal, Kim Vandenberg, Aaron Peirsol and Brad Schumacher."
"Richard Foster, an attorney for the plaintiffs, said Samsung's procedures "consisted of sending an email to some of the plaintiffs, in which they were told of the Genome Project and advised that they would be a part of the project unless they 'opted out.'""
Well that's pretty lame!:2cents:
