apple iphone ad a ripoff?

DaBitch points to a story claiming that the Apple Hello spot is a total ripoff of a sequence from artist Christian Marclay's 1995 film Telephones. At first, it seemed like a coincidence - but now Marclay claims that Apple actually contacted him about using his piece. When he wasn't interested, they just created their own version. Pretty scummy, if it's true.
