You've let your vitriol get in the way of fact-checking.

Found at the bottom of http://gabrielecirulli.github.io/2048/ :

That's cool. Four days later, there's a shout-out to Threes:

https://web.archive.org/web/20140314133031/http://gabrieleci...

It looks like the guy credited Threes within four days of his game's release, and has yet to remove that credit. It's entirely possible that he was only aware of 1024 at the time that he made is game.

Please get angry about something that matters. We need people to not waste their anger on unimportant things. :)
