For context, Core devices is the new company by the founder of Pebble to make pebbles again. Rebble is the org that kept pebbles running when Pebble disappeared

This is a weird response. From the sounds of things, Rebble essentially “stole” at least a large number of the apps in question from the original developers, and now claims that data as their own. Going so far as to charging for access. Which makes no sense at all.

    I back this viewpoint also. I'm not sure how Rebble could justify indefinitely charging for access to apps that they scraped from Pebble. Eric's response satisfied me that Core is not morally wrong. Some people are so willing to have a knee jerk reaction.
