@Nick, I know you didn't say that (that you were being dragged in), I was responding to what someone else said, about you. Just pointing out that nobody is to blame if your name is on public records affiliated with things you wish not to be affiliated with. That's sorta your responsibility.
@JP, Android is a great platform, and will be #1 in the near future; no serious developer will ignore it, if (s)he aims to be successful. Piracy sucks; it's easy to be angry when stupid kids earn money (perhaps more than us) from re-selling the product of our hard work. Nonetheless, MS doesn't fight for the copyright rights of Windows developers, Apple doesn't fight for Apple developers, and we've really no reason to expect Google to fight for our rights. In truth, the platform is probably more popular because it's so easy to pirate software, and that benefits Google. We need a good solution that works well in the $0.99 to $9.99 per unit model. Some exist, but I haven't seen a great one yet. In the mean time, issuing take-down notices, complaining to hosting companies and discussing it here in the hopes of a better solution is about all we can do for now. Any of us could sue the offenders, but it's expensive. Cheers!
