If your "independent" clone is hot linking assets from the original, you probably have less control than you think. Ironically, Trello probably knows (or could learn) the IP of every person to use this.

As far as I can tell, they're not actually hotlinking anything - they just copied it once into their repo. Did I miss something?

The copied css has references to image URLs in it.

Oh, I see it now. I was searching for trello.com, but they're using images that come from cloudfront.

Yes, you missed this commit. Where they copied across CSS from Trello, including image URLs.
