My big question is, why not fork the original first and commercialize that instead. So much forking around the wrong ways! /s
iirc CyanogenMod was trademarked so the creator no longer had rights.
Its kind of sad, but I'm sure the author knew what they were getting into
Because business majors only know how to exploit good things that would be better off without them.
If the good thing is left to just be better off without them – while they fuck around with a separate thing – then people will never be interested in the business majors' product.
MBAs love taking an existing brand and sucking whatever value they can extract. Like chupacabras but for functioning and useful products.
It's a forked up world.
