You've got to be kidding me. And this justifies Microsoft, right?

  He does have a point (one which merits better than his -4 fate). If your biggest asset is your UI, not only do you have to appreciate you have a tenuous competitive advantage but you should have a battle plan, both technical and legal, for when the theft invariably does happen. They got lucky that it was a big operation like MS with a public reputation to maintain (laugh all you like) rather than some no-name. It's easy to put public pressure on the Apples, Google and MS' of the world.

    Did you actually read the article? They ripped off the code as well as the UI.

      You're playing semantic games. js code is still UI.

        Why, because it's client-side? Categorizing all JavaScript as UI is simply wrong.
