Please note that is selling devices using CopperheadOS and has a financial interest in spreading misinformation about GrapheneOS and promoting their product. They are actively violating our open source licenses and taking our code without credit.

I had no financial interest. You told me not to use your code so I set up a company because I just wanted a working android device for the love of God.
Own goal on your part.

You're using our work and you're in violation of our open source licenses. You've taken to regularly spreading misinformation as part of your attempts to harm the open source project that you're leeching off for profit.

I'm not using your work though. You're welcome to prove those claims in court as opposed to social media.

You are using our code. Again, the specific example of github.com/GrapheneOS/har. It is easy to confirm that this code is in CopperheadOS and was taken from us. The same for nearly everything else that is changed. It's just a poorly done, insecure ripoff of GrapheneOS's old code.

People are going to figure out that you folks are scammers screwing over open source developers either way. You take the code we've developed throughout the years including in 2020 and sell it while at the same time trying to cause maximum harm to us. It's disgusting behavior.

You really should have thought that licensing through better.

The licenses for our code require attribution in every redistribution of it and do not allow for fraudulently claiming ownership and authorship of it. CopperheadOS is in violation of the licenses we use. Doesn't seem relevant what licenses we pick when you don't follow them.

paliareroland.com/lawyers/detail is our lawyer and has ample experience and knowledge on intellectual property including open source. We were referred to him by leadership at the EFF. He's confident in our case, and we have strong evidence and witnesses.
In court, you can't just get by with distracting from the facts with insults, non-sequiturs and misrepresentations. We're already filing counterclaims and our own federal lawsuit.
The overview of our counterclaims:
grapheneos.org/legal/Micay_%2
We have evidence and witnesses for it.

He advised me to publish our counterclaims and direct people to it. He certainly hasn't advised me to stop defending myself against people spreading misinformation.
He has told me that the case Copperhead has is very weak even aside from the misrepresentations and false claims.
