Reborn of Kate by Isla Rainfield

Chapter 212 The Storm of Public Opinion

Someone dug up pretty detailed info on HN Studio’s latest product launch, with pictures of their new stuff and screenshots of ten design drafts.

“Man, what HN’s pulling off is just not cool, and this designer, Lowe, thinks they’re untouchable because they won some big design contest, right? Like, really? They’re going around saying all these designs are their fresh creations. But, guys, come on, check this out. What’s all this?!”

“Those screenshots of the ten design drafts with watermarks? Four years ago, they were posted online on this super niche designer site by someone named Warm. So yeah, the cat’s out of the bag–these ‘original‘ designs by Lowe? They’re the spitting image of Warm’s work!”

“Do they honestly think that just because it’s a niche site, no one would notice if they lifted someone’s hard work and passed it off as their own? Is Lowe unaware that no one keeps tabs on these lesser–known sites?”

It’s pretty wild thinking back on how I’ve been a fan of Warm for the last four years, only for them to suddenly stop posting updates and vanish into thin air for the next four years. Like, they basically became ghosts.

But hey, just because Warm went MIA doesn’t mean we, the fans, just disappeared too! Seriously, this is straight–up plagiarism. There is no way around it. @Kate, do you even deserve the title of designer with this going on?

The post was pretty direct and used some intense words, even going as far as to tag Kate’s Twitter account right at the end.
