It's completely open source so no worries about privacy.

I think you mean "it comes with source code": there's no license.

And removing the original authors affiliate address and putting your own in there instead? Oh well, I guess it's par for the course when the software itself is basically a tool for fraud

Good luck!

Yes technically the code is still under "implicit copyright", meaning no body could even make any use of it. But this is clearly against the author's will (see his original post at http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/15w1y3/python_script_for_easier_use_of_bitvisitorcom/). Therefore, I'd rather ignore that implicit copyright and treat it something that is "free as in freedom".

I did include a link for donating to the author in my post. Also what I changed is a "referral" address, which doesn't seem that "fraudulent".
But thanks for pointing out and I've changed the comment in the code to the following:

   # The following address stands for a referral link. Right now it points to my address.
   # Feel free to change it to whatever you like when you redistribute the source code.
   # FYI, the original author's address is 13QgXZGtXYEY9cnEB9mGuD1ZbXMWirTicg.
   # Make sure to thank him with a small donation.

Hope that seems more fair.
