You know you tend to make up a ton of stuff without researching it.
A Ninth Circuit judge pressed the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals on Wednesday on how an ape has been harmed by the alleged copyright infringement of a famed "monkey selfie,” saying repeatedly during a hearing the group can’t claim the ape was "injured by the simple infringement of the Copyright Act itself."
U.S. Circuit Judge N. Randy Smith said there’s no allegation that the crested macaque ape, named Naruto, was harmed by photographer David Slater when he self-published a book that featured an image of Naruto taking a self portrait, or selfie.
The circuit judge’s comments came during a hearing on PETA’s appeal of U.S. District Judge William H. Orrick III’s January 2016 decision tossing PETA's September 2015 copyright infringement suit against Slater.
In his ruling, Judge Orrick found that animals don’t have standing to sue under the Copyright Act, and rejected PETA’s arguments that the law is at best ambiguous as to whether an animal can be considered an “author” of a work. PETA filed an appeal, which has been backed by an expert primatologist, and on Wednesday a three-judge panel heard oral arguments on the issue.
