Comment on The OBS project has accused Streamlabs of copying their name and trademark

Comments

Streamlabs is also almost exactly copying pages from the OBS project website:

Nearly identical titles, nearly identical general page layout, similar graphics.

They even verbatim copied the user testimonial text.

My guess is that they're going to Google Adwords themselves to the top of every relevant google search, and trick even people who have been to the correct OBS Project site into thinking "oh yeah, this is it, I'm in the right place!" and downloading streamlabs-obs.

The OBS pages are copyrighted, so it seems to me like OBS Project should be able to hit Streamlabs' web providers with some DMCA complaints.

That site have nothing to do with OBS really that is a separate project.

Ah, yep, you're right. Unfortunately, I apparently can't edit my comment to correct this. Lovely.

On HN, you can edit or delete comments for a little while after posting them, and after that they're locked in.

I believe the limit is two hours.
