**5. Why did you do this?**
I made it for my own use because I wanted to try if its possible or how hard it would be. It turned out to be doable so I did it and used it for few days myself and then I decided I would share it.
I have rewrote it to make it useable for all users and make their mining easier. I have added about 60% code to check for stupid things users may do and much better error handling to ensure your mining will be absolutely flawless.

I guess you know what is proprietary CopyRights Infringement? you want us to involve with your illegal ways. better take it to yourself

The "ethical" issue of this thing..
If you have problem with this and you think this modification is not ethical. I have to say if Claymore didn't make milions dollars monthly of your 1-2% fees I would have agreed but in this case NO I don't think this is problem.
I doubt he could even notice! Why? Well I left a debug feature for people just like you this feature shows Claymore's wallets and show them in your miner console. So you can check his wallets and see for yourself how many bitcoins he make daily.
He has many wallets on many pools here is just one of them there is maybe 30+ of these you can look them up yourself. https://etherscan.io/address/0xc1c427cd8e6b7ee3b5f30c2e1d3f3c5536ec16f5

That is the fruit of his innovative and support approach, I am not actually defending claymore as I know him or not, its juts that he deserves what he got for writing friendly user miner.

why don't you wrote your own miner? there are open source ready for modifications out there.

rofl doubt claymore has it copyrighted or ANYTHING even close

LOL...ROFL...I bet you're not using Claymores miner aren't you? or rather you're not reading License.txt included

As official as this may look, a text file with some legal seeming "agreement" means nothing. He hasn't patented/copyrighted it, and he hasn't even released his software under ANY type of legally-recognized software license type. It's totally fair game. With the $120,000+ he's making a month from his 1-2% fees, Claymore could have EASILY have hired a patent lawyer to protect this.
