VLC for iOS is back in App Store – not by VideoLAN
Ok, at first, the app provider added advertisement to the app using Google AdSense to make a personal profit. Further, the license is not MIT but MPLv2 and GPLv2 which is intrinsically different - and we clearly don't say that you can use our code for whatever you want. Then, they don't provide the source code to their changes, which is required by either license. Those licenses are not being shown in the App Store. Finally, the App Store shows "© 2015 Voldzi" which means that you claim copyright for entire app, which they clearly don't have.

Believe it or not, I'm not an author of it... And I'm not approving it, just found it interesting, that Apple accepted it into App Store.
