Comment on Monit's DMCA takedown notice for Inspeqtor

Comments

At first glance, the tweet [0] was sent a while ago, expressing desire for a port, with the idea of $$$$ as an incentive/joke. It appears that the author later decided to implement it themself. I hardly think that makes his intent to commercialize it clear.

He was already trying to sell it, starting at $25/mo.

Didn't the tweet predate the selling by a good few months?

I'm pretty sure Inspeqtor was only released last week. Mike basically saw a pain point he was having 6 months ago, then quit his job to solve that pain point. Monit's position makes no sense.
