You provide on your site you list in this thread, a download of firmware that violates the cgminer license.
https://mineitor.com/downloadsThis is, by definition, 'distributing' firmware.
It is a violation of the cgminer license to distribute this firmware and not supply source code on request.
I am the 2nd main developer of cgminer.
So I'm not at all sure why you think I wouldn't know how the license for cgminer works, nor why I wouldn't feel the need to point out you are violating the license.
You also advertise that people should use this firmware on your site, sounds like a bad idea to advertise to people to violate a license.
I already confirmed that you are right about license and nobody is telling that you don't know how license works. (

But you keep skipping other parts of my reply and telling me what you know. Here again, I will explain why it is complicated and even you accepted this situation.
All of the miner manufacturers are violating the license. So what is the point you keep telling people to not replace with another firmware which doing the same?
When you buy a Bitmain ASIC or Whatsminer. You already purchased a device with firmware that is violating the license.
You are providing service to customers who use miners (with original firmware) which is already the same.
It is true that you are not distributing any firmware but in the end, by allowing miners to use your pool somehow you are legitimizing the bigger players of this industry which also violate the license.
