The Xiaomi Stole Xposed Code to Implement it in MIUI


Xiaomi
It takes courage and love to create an application and to freely dispose of their code without asking anything in return. This is the main component of the open-source software, the authors of which we must respect if you want to use for free on your project. This did not happen in the case of Xposed framework which was copied and incorporated into MIUI, without the consent of the author. 


It all started when they installed the users Xposed framework in MIUI had problems with reboots and  one of the creators of Xposed framework searched the topic to help them. They found that  in a process included MIUI named Dexspy.The problem is that the code is the same and unchanged  to that of Xposed, justremoved all references to the name "Xposed" and of course the names of thecreators. 



People of Xposed therefore requested the floor to the forum MIUI, having been informed that the code added Xposed pilot and will be removed immediately,accepting the apology on behalf of MIUI. The code was removed but never so inofficial thread Xposed problems and how to deal, people added the case of MIUIsaying that the problem is treated in a waynot using the specific ROM. 



All this may not say anything to many of usbut a similar project is open  source  and Android, the Ubuntu and other Linux-based operating systems we use every daypaying only our device and not the software itselfThese add so manyapplications and open source programs you download for free, which is saferbecause the code can be tested at any time and you will understand how great isthe value of the Open Source movement for the modern man. There is also thechance that Xiaomi - MIUI as the Mediatek based in Chinawhich is known to notapply the laws of the western world, it is suitable either to punish avoiding their products, or at least be cautious in our markets because simply wasting our money.
