If you have a paid app out there, you probably have seen their spam comments. Now they claim to be in Sweden but even there it is illegal to sell stolen goods. The site owner is Nicholas Narbone. Isn't that the same guy from androidplayground?
Anybody interested in pooling some resources to get this guy called on his criminal activity? Piracy is one thing, making money off the apps developers poured lots of love and sweat into, is definitely crossing the line. Of course one can not fight every guy out there and if we shut one down, another will pop up. But apply that argument to criminals in general: Should we stop punishing criminals based on the fact that there will always be criminals? If there's no punishment, there surely will be more criminals. So nabbing one guy and making it really public certainly would be a deterrent for others. Hello Google lawyers: do the 30% you take from me cover a class-action lawsuit against this clown? Just asking... I can give you all the details and hundreds of other developers would probably do likewise. I can even drum up some users who say they weren't really aware that this is a pirate site and get you a list of all the apps that are stolen by Nicholas...
