One of our customers just alerted us to this copycat website. We view it as a really nice compliment to our designer, Micah Wolfe! I love the comment someone left in their feedback "an original website". https://recomio.uservoice.com/forums/198081-general/suggesti...

Reminds me of kids in secondary school who copy their homework directly from Wikipedia and then forget (or don't know how) to remove formatting and hyperlinks, bringing to their teachers printouts full of blue, underlined text.

If copy-pasting without leaving such obvious traces of it is such a difficult thing for people, then our civilization is doomed.

Yes the design looks similar but it looks like just a UI copy. The styling, scripts are pretty much different.

Fun fact:

keen.ico (OP) : banner_icons_light.png 800 x 454

recom.io(Alleged copier) : banner_icons_light.png 3928 x 2228

I'd definitely fork that

I like how they're linking directly to the keen S3 bucket that hosts google prettify's CSS.

There used to be a great website for this kind of thing (http://pirated-sites.com/), but it's unfortunately dead.

Maybe that's a nice project for someone else?

It looks completely different now: http://ctrlq.org/files/screenshots/b76a925667955563e430ac0d7...

They're hosted on EC2 (or some platform running on EC2). I wonder with what granularity Amazon responds to DMCA notices? Do they terminate the instance, delete the AMI, suspend the account?

meh, its just a bunch a rules in css and some simple images. its more a question of fashion rather than intellectual property.

hmm... seems recom.io took down their site now

At least change the background colors.
