@pbsnews: Court weighs who owns a 'vibe' after online influencer sues another for copying her look Who owns a vibe? That question is at the heart of a lawsuit where one online influencer is suing another for copyright infringement. Sydney Gifford claims that Alyssa Sheil knowingly replicated Gifford’s aesthetic and her posts on social media. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Sandra E. Garcia, a reporter at The New York Times who has been covering this first-of-its-kind case. #pbsnewshour #pbsnews #newshour #vibe #vibes #influencer #influencers #socialmedia #copyright #copyrightinfringement #court
