Re:Did Strava copy its mobile route builder from another app? on Thursday February 28, 2019 @02:20PM (#19274221)
Maybe it's not the user interface that's novel, it's how they use their data? Does Footpath have something like heatmap data that it uses to chart a path?

> The issue as I see it is that Strava is being misleading in saying they came up with an idea themselves and can innovate quickly, when in fact the data shows otherwise.

Is there a real issue with this, or are you being petty? Is there a legal complaint to be made, or are you just trying to smear Strava or gain attention for yourself? Marketing constantly exaggerates how novel or innovative new technology is.

What's evil about this?
This is just what it's like to work at a large tech company in the Trump era. Emotions run too hot, and the vocal minority runs the show. I'm just waiting them out, their lack of focus on their actual work will be their downfall.
