Quibi is asking a California judge to end 'a campaign of threats and harassment' ahead of its April 6 launch
Quibi says an interactive video sales company called Eko has "embarked on a campaign of threats and harassment."
Interactive media company Eko has accused Quibi of patent infringement and stealing trade secrets, according to a complaint filed Monday in California federal court. The dispute centers on the fledgling streamer's "Turnstyle" — a feature that detects the orientation of a user's smartphone to determine whether they see a video in landscape or portrait mode.
After CES, Eko sent Quibi a letter alleging that its employees stole trade secrets and source code — but Quibi maintains the employees who are accused of such conduct "are not engineers or computer programmers, do not read source code, and would have had no reason to request or obtain Eko code."
