He was even leeching the JSON files off my server and serving them to his users.

You could have fun with this, though -- replace those files with something nasty and *poof* there goes his userbase and his credibility. Maybe Chinese for "this guy is a thief and a pedophile!" Or an ASCII version of goatse? ;DTitle: Re: So there's a Chinese Ripoff of My Site Post by: Clark on April 15, 2013, 02:54:42 PM Well, since I know the code that's going to be processing these JSON files (I wrote it), I know that there is data validation on incoming code, so nothing will get through.

(We all love your site, and think you are justified in pushing back when people rip you off!) Title: Re: So there's a Chinese Ripoff of My Site Post by: Clark on April 15, 2013, 04:59:39 PM Update.
He contacted me a month ago wanting to buy the source of my site for $200. I declined, so he ripped it off instead, even preserving the copyright statement in the footer of ss.btc123.com.
