I know about civil rights, but the intention of being a miniature Ninja is serious business. If we all have to give up some of our freedom to stop it, I say that’s a price we all must pays

A lower volume of sales is offset with higher profit margins.

Sometimes efforts need to fail in order for someone else to have an opportunity to succeed.
I think Brett Favre learned to count to 21 on his cell phone.
I think I agree with you, but
Copycat apps are a useful learning tool. I have shamelessly copied other ideas from other apps so I could focus on learning the technology.
