    Lightbulb Zynga Sues Brazilian Dev For Copying Its Games [Slashdot]



    An anonymous reader writes "In what can only be described as a case of the pot calling the kettle black, Zynga has launched and settled a lawsuit against Brazilian game developer Vostu after accusing Vostu of copying their games. The settlement resulted in the loss of jobs for many Vostu employees. How Zynga managed to carry out such actions while keeping a straight face after dealing with similar allegations remains to be seen."

    Mark Pincus, CEO of Zynga:
    I don’t fucking want innovation. You’re not smarter than your competitor. Just copy what they do and do it until you get their numbers.
