I find it disheartening that this discussion is even taking place. Is this really the level of understanding of intellectual property rights among the community?
Let's say you're Electronic Arts with Tetris and Monopoly ready for the Android platform, as they claimed was imminent way back in OCTOBER. Are you going to release your games in a Wild West free-for- all where anyone can "clone" your game and sell it? Not a chance. That isn't the way the real world works, whether it fits with the "everything should be free" philosophy or not. It's piracy, whether we want to say the word or not. It seems so simple: Come up with your own ideas, or at least if you're going to copy something, make sure it's in the public domain first. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
