Re: android-x86 Group Hosting Pirated Copies of Google Experience, Libhoudini.so
My motivations really don't matter. This is a textbook case of software piracy in my opinion. All I'm asking Google to do, is enforce the same rules we all have to follow in open source software. Piracy is bad and hurts the whole FOSS community. The libhoudini binaries are clearly not permitted for distribution by android-x86. The Google Experience / Google Play Store binaries also are a textbook infringement, as I cited in the links in my posts since the start of September.
