Google stole open source code without crediting the authors (Artemis/Minitap)

Google released the Artemis project, which contains code identical to the open-source mobile-use experiment, including device-connection logic and Hopper agent instructions. The Artemis repository omits the original authors’ names and provides no acknowledgment of mobile-use, despite the code’s Apache 2.0 license requiring attribution. The authors documented the timeline, author list changes, and exact code matches in a public record.
