that Jordan Neely was "aggressively threatening"

off Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On.".
Sheeran said he's "obviously very happy
with the outcome of the case" and won't
have "to retire from my day job after all.".

We have spent the last eight years talking about two songs with dramatically different lyrics, melodies and four chords which are also different and used by songwriters every day, all over the world. , Ed Sheeran, via statement.
These chords are common building blocks which were used to create music long before “Let’s Get It On” was written and will be used to make music long after we are all gone, Ed Sheeran, via statement.
No one owns them or the way they are played, in the same way, nobody owns the color blue, Ed Sheeran, via statement.
Sheeran also spoke about missing his grandmother's funeral as a result of the trial. .
Having to be in New York for this trial has meant that I have missed being with my family at my grandmother’s funeral in Ireland.

The U.S. government originally coined
the term "juice jacking" back in 2011. .
According to officials at the FCC, malware can be installed
through a corrupted USB port and can be used to lock a
device or export data and passwords directly to criminals.
CBS reports that the stolen information
can then be used to access users' online
accounts or be sold to bad actors.
The scary part of juice jacking
is that you probably won't even be
able to tell that your phone is infected
with malware after plugging it
into a compromised USB port, Matt Swinder, Editor-in-chief and founder of TheShortcut.com, via CBS.
