SAN RAMON, California: Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak is launching a legal attack against Google’s YouTube video site for allowing con artists to use him as a pawn in a Bitcoin scam believed to have heisted millions of dollars from people around the world.
The personal computer pioneer vented his frustration and anger in a video conference held July 23 to explain why he decided to sue one of the world’s biggest Internet companies in a California state court earlier this week. The suit also represents 17 alleged victims of the bitcoin scam, including 10 people who live outside the US.
