API: Application Program Interface.

There is nothing other than the interface of an API to copy. That's what it is.

However, the implementation is what copyright protects, so, honestly, I think this whole article is not very relevant.

Yes, my point is that "the API" as in the interface itself can be the copied, but "the API" (implementation) cannot. Clear? :)
