These products were created in collaboration with YouTuber Zack 'JerryRigEverything' Nelson.
Dbrand and Nelson claim that CASETiFY's 'Inside Out' line is a poorly masked version of their Teardown products. They allege that CASETiFY's Inside Out cases even feature Dbrand's logo, which they claim is a clear indication of design theft. The lawsuit alleges that CASETiFY copied 117 of Dbrand's designs, for which Dbrand holds the registered copyright.
In addition to the logo, Dbrand and Nelson point to several 'easter eggs' placed in the Teardown skins that they claim can also be found in CASETiFY's designs. These include numerous tweaks and layout changes that they argue are too similar to be coincidental.
