Incredibly shady percentage and even more shady way of responding. With that being said, calling it stealing is a bit much. The blame is on you. Read the license of what you're using, and make sure what it's requesting in general. Triggering statement, so be warned: Ad Revenue supported products are generally ALL SHADY. So, I'm astonished he gave you back some money. Probably a useless attempt to have less hassle moving forward, yet you went ahead and shared it. At best, you're equally to blame. At worst, you just want stuff for free while you get paid for your work, the worst kind of entitlement. |

Here's the license:
https://github.com/floatinghotpot/cordova-admob-pro/blob/mas...
It's MIT.
Here's what they say "If you have used this plugin for FREE but monetized more than $1000, you are also required to get a license, or share us some Ad traffic as stated in win-win partnership model below"
If the MIT license is correct, they are lying: people don't need to get a license. The users already have a license that covers absolutely everything and they even have the right to edit the plugin to remove the % cut altogether.
Other things they are lying about, in their wiki https://github.com/floatinghotpot/cordova-admob-pro/wiki/Lic...
"Reminder: copy the code, change a plugin name, without feature enhancement, then publish to npm, is not allowed."
This is just false. The existing MIT license absolutely allows changing the name and republishing to npm.
Perhaps they just don't understand what is open source about. Absolutely all open source licenses allow forks.
