Attribution needs to be explicit for Open Source Licenses prominently available for customers to look at.

Making money off from another product calling it your own innovation is plagiarism.

There is never a mention of that it uses MinIO underneath.

But it explicitly shows that it's using Minio when the application is actually used?

Sure, it's totally uncool to not mention Minio on their site and that's a massive shame but, as far as I'm aware, nothing in the license would require Weka to explicitly mention they're using Minio in their advertising/marketing like the provided link?
