Inventor-controlled PlayVuu, Inc. has sued Snap (2:22-cv-06019) over the provision of the Snapchat app. A single patent, generally related to creating and sharing audiovisual content to a social network, is asserted in the new Central District of California complaint. PlayVuu alleges willful infringement based on purported interactions dating back to 2016, roughly a decade after its CEO, according to the complaint, “released two studio albums, ‘Never Peak’ released in 2002 under the moniker Mad Philosopher and the self-titled album ‘Shane’ released in 2007”, focusing “his rap career on promoting positive messages through his fun, up-tempo songs, which omitted any reference to violence, alcohol, drugs, or profanity”.
