Apple Claiming The Term "Pod"

Apple Computers is laying legal claim to the term “pod,” used in words like “podcast.” Here are some other items Apple is trying to claim as its own:

Human silhouettes

Several thousand Chinese children

Thinking differently

The last slice of pizza

The term “tunes”

Any Granny Smith with a bite taken out of it

The concept of sharing

The pronoun “I”; Effective immediately Apple will collect royalties from anyone referring to oneself in this manner
