Casetify is under fire for allegedly plagiarizing its Inside Out skins from dbrand’s Teardown skins, a skin collab with Tech Youtuber JerryRigEverything. A day after JerryRigEverything posted his expose and after a series of tweets from dbrand, Casetify finally issues a statement regarding the matter. The statement was posted on Casetify’s X page.
Casetify Copyright Infringement Statement
Casetify’s statement isn’t well received by the community as numerous users called out the brand for its poor and out-of-touch PR statement.
Frankly, if we dissect and rebutt Casetify’s message, the message does indeed feel rushed and was just posted for the sake of “posting.” There’s likely no DDOS attack that happened as the server load was highly coming from curious netizens who want to see the plagiarized products themselves. Moreover, the “All customer information is safe” seems to be completely irrelevant considering the issue at hand and is just probably added to make the statement long enough.
dbrand strikes back
In typical dbrand fashion, dbrand called out the statement saying “It took you copy-pasting clowns a full day to write this? Better hope your lawyers are better than your PR team.” dbrand also replied to the Casetify tweet disproving the “removed the designs in question from all platforms” part of the statement with a Inside Out product link from BestBuy.
Additionally, JerryRigEverything made a video post in X showing Casetify’s attempt to swap out the plagiarized skins on its website before taking it all down.
