Facebook ordered to pay $4.7 million for copying an app in Italy
An Italian court has ordered Facebook to pay $4.7 million in damages to a software company for copying an app. Facebook copied their 'Nearby' feature from Business Competence's 'Faround' app, which allows users to identify shops, clubs, restaurants in their area, the judges said. "We have received the court's decision and are examining it carefully," a Facebook spokesperson told Reuters.
