Google's Legal Department has contacted us with a very nice and
open letter signed by Dr. Arnd Haller, Legal Rep. He stated that
Google thinks we are doing great work but somehow something
illegal, that they are fully aware that this is an art piece but
still we
should kindly stop with our assumed illegal activity.
