Fair question. Let me be specific. What I'm NOT claiming:

Copyright infringement — I can't prove they copied code Patent violation — neither of us has a patent

What I AM claiming:

I published a specific architecture in October 2025 They shipped a similar architecture in 2026 I sent formal notice to document my prior art — in case they ever file a patent or claim to have invented this They've ignored four communications

What I actually want:

Acknowledgment that my notice was received That's it

You're right. they don't have to acknowledge me. But "don't have to" and "shouldn't" are different things. If a small developer reaches out professionally about architectural overlap, and the company that preaches "transparency" and "trust" can't send a two-line reply in four months? That's a choice. And it says something about how they treat indie devs in their ecosystem. Maybe I'm not owed a response. But I'm also not wrong for being frustrated by silence.
