There is already a Chinese clone that copied everything verbatim, including their USB vendor code (which is said to make the product a counterfeit merchandise).
Link Please.

You are welcome.


Thanks.

They used a lot of trezor code, yes. That's totally legitimate afaict. Hardly would call that a counterfeit, especially because the casing looks hardly like the trezor.

Yes, reusing the vendor code is maybe not the best behaviour (and likely against some rules), but it doesn't constitute counterfeiting imo.
