       @twitnews This was a thoughtful cloning to make a Mac version the original developer was not going to bother with. But the original developer might STILL have to field support calls. How close is it?Compare with the ethics of Chinese shops cloning practically every app in the app stores, clogging the decision trees for users. Or the 2048 game that went up against Threes.
