This is an amazing post and one that every person who has released public works should read, including open-source maintainers.
The basic gist of it is that a game developer, Jason, released a game in the public domain for free. Some mobile developers from the company DualDecade released it on the App Store with the exact naming as the title and did not bother to highlight that it was an unofficial derivative work made by Jason. Game becomes very popular. Jason receives various emails wanting him to change the game. Jason requests that DualDecade change the name.
It draws attention to the fine lines between copyright, commercial communication, plagiarism, naming and more. I will be following this very closely. Will the creative commons licence that Jason chose hold weight, especially as it wasn't CC-BY? I guess we'll find out.
