| Issue | Court’s Holding | Rationale | |-------|----------------|-----------| | | Yes – the API is a “protected computer.” | The court relied on United States v. Nosal (9th Cir. 2012) and Van Buren v. United States (2021) to determine that accessing a computer system with an invalid credential (revoked token) is “exceeding authorized access.” | | Trade‑secret status of the data | Yes – the data qualifies as a trade secret. | The court applied the four‑part test from E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co. v. Christopher (4th Cir. 2021): (1) the data is not generally known; (2) it has independent economic value; (3) ShopLyfter exercised reasonable secrecy measures (token authentication, NDAs, internal policies); (4) there was an attempt to misappropriate. | | Breach of contract | Yes – Moore violated the Developer‑Agreement. | The agreement expressly prohibited reverse‑engineering and scraping. Moore’s internal emails admitted she “went around the token restrictions.” | | Defamation claim | Partially granted – only the statements that could be proven false were enjoined. | The court distinguished between protected opinion (“in my opinion”) and false statements of fact. Moore’s claim that “ShopLyfter steals merchants’ money” was deemed a factual assertion lacking supporting evidence. | | Damages & Attorneys’ Fees | Awarded – $1.2 M actual damages + $150 k fees. | The court used Graham v. Connor (Texas, 2020) methodology: (1) lost profits and (2) reasonable royalty for the misappropriated data. The damages were based on a 12‑month period of lost merchant subscriptions and a per‑merchant royalty of $150. | This case file will be maintained until the
