Ok, so the other side is trolling … and this here is then somehow different, substance-wise?
Apart from this “Tee-hee, in Kindergarten we spell evil companies wrong deliberately because they’re so evil, that will show them, tee-hee!” somehow never ever having a positive effect on the sincerity of an argument, but that’s just me .
That’s a stretch.
Not sueing doesn’t make stuff legal by default.
Perhaps when they felt bored and wanted to annoy /e/ at some point, Google’s legal department would start with looking at the /e/ logo, which screams at you “Hey, we took the Google ‘G’, mirrored it vertically, shortened the arc a little and slightly rearranged the colours, might that be just enough design change to prevent you from sueing us, Google ?”
Anyway, if the Google Play Store ToS are in play … which ones are they now?
There are https://play.google.com/about/play-terms/index.html and https://www.google.com/mobile/android/market-tos.html … both are “Google Play Terms of Service”, and they are different.
The first ones can be currently reached via e.g. the Play Store website and seem more lenient to me, while the second ones include section 3.3, which was brought up in Play Store access arguments in the past, it seems.
Edit: Ah, there’s a hint in the company name … they are currently “Google LLC”, while they were “Google Inc.” in the past, so it would seem the second ToS are obsolete.
So, how are /e/ violating the Google Play Store ToS then?
(I almost forgot my question, and I baselessly blame you all .)
