Closed-source library with stolen sources #13

Open

Description

@alexzhirkevich

No way you stole the generator source code from https://github.com/alexzhirkevich/qrose, violated its licence and hided sources :D.
Do you generate/scan fake Bitcoin addresses? :D
So ridiculous.

    Shall we download the full source codes of this extremely useful library before the corporate players will defeat it?

    How absurd. We wouldn’t know if they’re collecting user data, for all we know. If you’re using one of these shady libraries, do NOT use it unless the full source code is provided. A case should be raised about this.

    So after taking a look at the source jars and putting them into a project that actually compiles, which is NOT HOW YOU DISTRIBUTE LIBRARY SOURCE CODE, I was able to deduce that the guy is trying to make himself look bigger than he really is, I mean importing a whole material icon library to do what exactly?

    Or importing a library called "cmp-pick-n-crop" to use the permission manager from that library so that when a user uses the desktop version, they see a button that he then presses to see a dialog? IDK man that seems like such a roundabout way of doing things, when every CMP project either has a custom implementation or uses a premade library.

    Seriously, what is the author gaining from this game of "You can easily access the source code" only for the source code to be distributed in a terrible way, with code that was clearly written by a hobbyist (not dunking on hobbyist programming, just stating what this project really looks like to me as someone who does android dev for a living), while the github accounts looks like a professional account with medium articles written to boot. You have an okay library, stop ruining it with stupid actions such as stealing code and making source code more annoying to compile and just inflating your github with projects that anyone worth their salt can make in less than 2 hours.
