If you go to the plagiarized product page (http://www.chupamobile.com/products/details/600/Secured+Chat/ http://www.chupamobile.com/products/details/600/Secured+Chat...) and click more info under Regular License, the license terms are more restrictive than the BSD, which is a violation. However, the author is in Indonesia, so there's probably not much recourse.
Edit: the plagiarist is in Indonesia
- davidw 14y agoYou can package up BSD code and resell it under a more restrictive license.
- beagle3 14y ago> the license terms are more restrictive than the BSD, which is a violation. I think you are confused with the GPL. BSD only requires you to acknowledge original authorship, and declines any suitability or liability. It requires you to preserve the first. (You're welcome to take liability, though ...)
- yarrel 14y agoMore restrictive terms than BSD aren't a violation. Plenty of proprietary systems have been based on BSD code. That's pretty much the point of BSD. If you want to prevent people placing more restrictive conditions on your code, that's what the GPL is for.
