google killed my first app on which i worked for a year for copyright claims by rockstar games take two! it was in fair use with no commercial usage. free. it was an interactive map. all i used were the map and added my own icons and locations. since it was completely free it was under the fair usage right. i referred to the dozen other apps that had ads in them and all they said was just that one app is allowed doesn't mean another is too.
i was buffed at that statement. its a disgrace. my app had 120 k downloads in a year and people were loving it because no ads and useful. this is the state of app development. how long will we tolerate this!
