- mickaelkel 13y agoIt was "copyright troll" You can consider it at a API oriented "patent troll". This proves that some API providers want to keep juridical and commercial protection out of their APIs, as it was a patent. Have you seen all the recent API Terms of service changes because of competiting business model of 3rd party applications?
