There's a difference between making a game influenced by another game and purposely ripping off a popular game in detail just to make money off it's success.
I think it's interesting that Google and co are doing to Apple what Microsoft and co did to Apple back in the day.

Oh right, that's why Android has basically taken over the market.

Thank you for your informative reply.
I think a better route would be make that the default method/policy and make it hard for the average user to it.
