Whose logo is being copied? It's just the name of the service in italics
1 comments

It looks very similar to Vimeo (just more italicized). The placement is identical too.
Different fonts, different spacings. I don't see how this is supposedly a ripoff.
That's just commodification of design; websites tend to exhibit very similar structures, styles, and design elements, so they're eventually bound to coincide at some point.

The logo is nothing more than the product name with a fancy italic font face; that's not even copyrightable. The similarity comes from having names with some matching letters.
