@_copperj @grufwub @CopperheadOS No, this is the direct continuation of the original project by the original development team. The project was started before Copperhead was founded and long before it was incorporated. People can confirm this for themselves by looking at the code, dates and published documents.
@_copperj @grufwub @CopperheadOS You agreed to support this open source project by building a business around it while explicitly agreeing that it would remain as an independent entity from the business without Copperhead directly owning or controlling it. You went back on your word and betrayed the project.
@_copperj @grufwub @CopperheadOS You hijacked the infrastructure and prevented the previous incarnation of the project from ever being able to release a legitimate update again. You stole the donations sent to support the development team and siphoned off the revenue earned based on leeching off the project.
@_copperj @grufwub @CopperheadOS You even stole the project's original Twitter account, which you've used to misrepresent yourself as the original project and team behind it. The new CopperheadOS is a new project with no legitimate heritage from the original and is based on code used against the licensing terms.
