Pretty sure it's illegal too, since he didn't even care to include the license for the Microsoft.Windows.Ocr[1] package used in this project. The author seems to care about people redistributing their work as they added a GPL license to the project, but they didn't care enough to include the licenses of the libraries doing the actual work. An interesting part of the license that the author is likely violating is the benchmarking restriction. The author links to another post on their blog that is entirely comprised of benchmarks.[2] Personally I don't like the restriction either, but it's Microsoft's choice and the author must respect their choice. "4. BENCHMARK TESTING. You must obtain Microsoft's prior written approval to disclose to a third party the results of any benchmark test of the software." 1: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Windows.Ocr/ https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Windows.Ocr/ 2: http://blog.a9t9.com/2015/04/new-free-online-ocr-service.html http://blog.a9t9.com/2015/04/new-free-online-ocr-service.htm...
