lol "There are some bugs, like when you press clean up it will say griffpatch, but an update will come later" Wonder why it says griffpatch? Let's just think about that.

From the youtube video, I'd be pretty sure the copier is just a kid, so don't go attacking him, he probably doesn't realise the consequences of what he did. I'm surprised google allowed the copy on the store though, considering their strict guidelines. A simple cease and desist will be enough to get it taken down.

I already reported it

I think google chrome let him upload it because it's the old version of the extension and chrome web store didn't save the old version

But that's not the case . Anyone can do it if they DO NOT HAVE a brain . That guy has just cloned this repository and packed the extension . And if he is a kid i am sure he is really naughty , as he needed to pay money for just 'COPYING' and uploading an extension an extension .

I don't think so . He has just cloned this repository , removed the CRX file and packed it ( he must have also paid to contribute the webstore . What a waste of money ) .

Seriously, they are trying to say that the fact that it mentions griffpatch is a bug. That's a total licence violation. Edit: The thing is, nothing else is against the LICENSE.
