So it would be the differences that make it none intellectual property theft?
I know Smoke has many differences but was it built off the supposed protected property or was it completely designed from the ground up? Does that matter? I’m still confused about the exact details of what would be protected by Steemit Inc if everything has been publicly released?
I assumed that we were talking about weku as I have not looked into it, figured it was a direct duplicate or something.
Smoke to me feels like it’s own thing with a entire culture around it getting back to what I imagine Steemit to have started off with, till the investors started figuring ways of maximizing profits and pushing for development changes to make them possible. It has its own branding and differences on nearly every piece of the front end, though small they are still not a duplicate by any means IMO.
Always appreciate your 0.02 💪

Yes , and the entire whitepaper is different, the front end smoke.io has a different use , it's not a test bed. They have advertising planned as well, so you tell me, is this the same IP, i don't see it as the same.
