航班追踪平台 FlightAware 已在纽约联邦法院起诉预测市场平台 Kalshi,指控后者未经许可使用其航班数据和商标,支持航班取消相关事件合约的运行与结算。此案发生之际,Kalshi 还在纽约、威斯康星和内华达面临其他合规诉讼。

指控集中在数据与商标使用

根据起诉文件,Kalshi 在 7 月 14 日上线全国及地方航班取消合约,同日向美国商品期货交易委员会(CFTC)提交相关事件合约的挂牌文件。该产品允许用户押注特定时段内计划航班的取消比例。

FlightAware 称,Kalshi 早前已同意其数据许可条款,其中包括禁止商业用途。起诉文件还提到,一名 Kalshi 员工曾在 2022 年注册付费的 AeroAPI 账户,但相关授权并不允许将数据用于这类商业合约。

停止函后仍继续引用

FlightAware 表示,公司曾向 Kalshi 发出停止侵权函,但后者否认违反许可协议或侵犯商标权,并主张对 FlightAware 的提及属于“指示性合理使用”。

此后,Kalshi 在网站上加入免责声明,称相关市场并未获得 FlightAware 背书。不过,FlightAware 认为这并未改变核心问题,因为 Kalshi 仍把 FlightAware 数据作为合约输赢判定依据。

  • FlightAware 请求法院判令赔偿损失
  • 同时要求禁止继续使用其数据和标识
  • 案件受理法院为纽约南区联邦地区法院

或影响预测市场数据授权模式

FlightAware 还称,围绕航班取消设立押注市场,可能带来安全风险,因为参与者可能因此获得影响航班延误或取消结果的经济动机。起诉文件显示,Kalshi 也曾将美国交通部航班数据列为可替代的结算来源。

与其他州级诉讼不同,这起案件的焦点不在是否构成未获许可的博彩,而在于预测市场平台能否在没有商业协议的情况下,直接使用第三方数据和品牌来结算合约。若法院受理相关主张并作出明确判断,可能影响类似平台未来的产品设计和数据采购方式。

截至报道发布时,Kalshi 尚未立即回应置评请求。
