Ok, I read her article but didn’t follow the links. The emoji kitchen is a google gBoard project, Jennifer works on the gBoard team and is part of the emoji kitchen team. All the other sites are just documenting (in fun ways) the work that the emoji kitchen team is doing. And apparently regular non-google people can submit combined emojis to the emoji kitchen to be added. I guess it’s a question of who owns the copyright.
