Did Ente Locker copy my code without attribution?

fairscan.org ·2h ago

Ente Locker allegedly copied the image processing code from FairScan without giving proper attribution. Ente Locker's engineers admitted this during discussions, but maintained the code was re-written. FairScan's creator found multiple similarities between the codebases, suggesting almost direct translations. Ente Locker did not acknowledge these similarities and continued promoting its new feature publicly. The creator questions if this constitutes use of FairScan's code under the GPL, and if legal action is warranted.
