Beware of these youtubers, they steal your work

India is not alone in this. We also saw the same problem with users from Nepal and other Asian countries. And indeed, most of the time it are teenagers but not always.

There is little you can do about them. If you put an aia somewhere you have to be prepared that users will take them as their own even if you put a license in them. I put only the things online that are public domain, so anybody can do with them as they like. In your post you said that a link back is appreciated. So they may choose to do that but are not obligated to do it.

so in that case for my future update for the browser project i have to change the text and add terms about how to use aia, so it wont happen again. :thinking:

Yes, and you can maybe delete some parts so to not to deliver a complete product.

I think this would be the best license for you:

https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/

While we recommend against using a CC license on software itself, CC licenses may be used for software documentation, as well as for separate artistic elements such as game art or music.

That’s why I don’t share my AIA files. Maybe you can remove AIA link, and you can add your e-mail address or something for requesting AIA.

By making this, only serious users will send mail to you. Because I know, most of these YouTube channels won’t contact with you. You can understand them with typing and others. Then you can give AIA them safely.

do i have to register or i just use this link and display on my app.

You can just use the link. Maybe add the license to your aia as in the example so users don’t “miss it by mistake”.

I thought about another way to put the license in your aia-file. An aia-file is just a zipfile with another extension.

I put a textfile in this case a markdown file with all the license information inside the aia-file. This file is imported with the aia and exported again. Users could just remove this file, but it is an extra bit of work they have to do inside the aia file itself.

But the user cannot see this without unzipping the aia, can he?
And its not an everyday thing for a basic user, I think

You are using Linux too :smile:

You can do this AND the methode above. An extra security measure.

i think normally a basic user don’t rename the aia file to zip and see whats inside. after adding the md file inside the zip we rename the file back to aia so they don’t know whats inside. this is the best method so far.

I Think Kodular/Makeroid Have To Set That
If User Start A New Project So Name Of His Gmail is Stored Any Place In Place Which Can’t Deleted By Himself Also.
Or If User Import Any Project So Name Of First Developer Must Be Stored In It And Show In Builder.
I Think This May Reduce Spamming.
Thanks.
