Is anyone really this stupid?
It’s a copy of open source software (basically, a program someone else created and offers to the public for free), which is not only available as code, but also exists as an entirely free and vastly superior audio-video app and even better AV program for PCs. Since the developer did follow the only condition required for use of open source software-clearly stating the true origin of his “work” in the app description-this rightly be considered a scam; it’s not really even misleading. He clearly states the things it does, and simply doesn’t mention that they’re all poor duplications of existing features on every device for the last decade. This is a subpar copy of an unfinished, very outdated version of another video app; doing less than the native app on any modern OS.
It’s not a scam, not really misleading, and overall-although certainly NOT beneficial, not even benign-it isn’t malicious. It’s unlikely to be the tip of any deeper nefarious scheme, as many like it are.
What it IS, is an Idiot Trap: an easily created, low maintenance line in the water, just waiting for someone who’s actually simple minded enough to use it. An extra thick individual might also click on ads, & better still, pay for a subscription to feature a their phone already had.
What I’m wondering; what made me curious enough to write all this, is whether this particular version of the selling existing features idiot trap has actually hooked any dullards. Unlike its more malignant counterparts, it’s essentially honest, and very minimal in its efforts to entice wealthy oafs. Has it worked anyway? Please reply and let me know, I’m genuinely very curious. If you’d answer that question for me -personally, not a form letter- I’d be most grateful; enough so that I’d be willing to reciprocate by offering some insight from a professional on how you could improve your existing model with some simple, but effective adjustments. Hope to hear from you!
