OK need some help here if anyone has info on this.
Today google took down one of my App's the first App in my years where I have really started making money, About $35 a day and going up.
I filed a filed a counter notification but does Google really do anything about this type of stuff other then just tell you to kick rocks. The person who filed on my App has a App somewhat like mine and has some of the same info that my App has in it. All of it was Public Domain Computer INFO and stuff you can get from Wikipedia and a lot of the info is over 15 to 20+ years old.
Are App's look nothing alike other then a few old parts photos and so on so I don't understand how my App could be taken down or even why. Does Google even look at this stuff or do they just take it down and make you take the other person to court.
On a side note I did look around a little tonight and the other person does not own a trademark for their App's name and they don't live in the USA, Would it be wrong of me to trademark the name nor domain name and do a nice website up and go after him to get him back !!! I know that sounds bad but I hate working so hard and something and then seeing it taken away from me as someone got pissed due to me taking away a few $$$ from them.
Thanks for any info that can be given on this type of stuff.

unpaid reviews "something I don't believe in" was 4.65 stars from 250+ reviews. The big issue I have is they are on the other side of the world so things like this do not come cheap. That is why I was thinking about filing a TradeMark on his App name something he never did as I may have to fight dirty due to him being on the other side of the world and google being of no help on this.
"Hello,
At this time, Google has decided not to take action based on our policies concerning content removal and reinstatement in regard to the URLs below:

Will have to wait god knows how many months for them to get back to me on this
I just am not going to roll over on this one as I know I am 100% within my right to do this as he calmed copy right over my code and I know he did not right my HTML as I did.
As for Google even having sending them links showing the stuff is not covered under DMCA and would fall in Public Domain stuff I still just get the same canned stuff from them and no help.
This is real BS on Googles part if you ask me.
i will see what's the problem exactly
and i will tell you
