Damien Gayle, The Guardian; Farting unicorn row: artist reaches settlement with Elon Musk
"A Colorado artist says he has reached a settlement with Elon Musk after challenging the Tesla tycoon’s use of a farting unicorn motif that he had drawn as an ironic tribute to electric cars.
Musk used the cartoon image on Twitter, without attribution, to promote his Tesla
electric car range, and ignored Tom Edwards’ attempts to come to a
licensing arrangement, telling the artist’s daughter it would be “kinda
lame” to sue."
Issues and developments related to ethics, information, and technologies, examined in the ethics and intellectual property graduate courses I teach at the University of Pittsburgh School of Computing and Information. My Bloomsbury book "Ethics, Information, and Technology" will be published in Summer 2025. Kip Currier, PhD, JD
