It's not the footer that is the problem. It's not telling anybody that you're recycling other people's work.

I explicitly pointed out that the footer is fine. I generally like this type of ad the most -- do some great work, publish it, tell everybody who you are and that you are hiring or open for business opportunities. But this backfires if the thing you built is questionable.

I believe that this was an honest mistake. But unfortunately a quite telling one regarding team culture. Building things fast should not be an excuse for ripping other people off.
