About Shapeways and the recent heist...

55.4k Beefy  3.4 years ago

If i were to make a profit out of my SimplePlanes crafts (just mine), should I...

A. Make these crafts strictly for Shapeways and NOT post it on the website?

B. Make these crafts for both sites?

C. Is this even legal?

Personally I think of it as an equivalent to streaming, using a game to rake in money.

If anyone else here ever even thought of doing a more moral version of what Giorgio did, we might as well discuss it now before something goes wrong down the line.

On the other hand...

    I think if you made it it’s totally fine, but he just stole stuff and that’s illegal

    @asteroidbook345 but which do you consider intellectual property? The craft itself or the software used to make the craft?

    Using other people's stuff to make money is illegal and violates ownership of intellectual property.
