Dear Mr. Anderson,

I believe that content available at your website infringes my copyright.

A while ago I created the stand alone search bar "Amazon + Search Suggestions", hostet at your website (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/amazon-search-suggestions-comc/). There are now two (mostly) identical Add-ons at your website, with the same functions, style and source code:

- https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/amazon/

    This is the exact same Add-on, with just one feature less.
    The Style of the bubble is very odd if you may see; it's not the 

default background.

- https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/amazon-smart-search-with-searc/

    Another clever copy. The author changed the style and added one 

feature. The code is still based on my Add-on (99%).

I believe in good faith that the use of the material that I claim to infrige my copyright is not authorized by law, or by the copyright owner or such owner's agent. All the information contained in this notice is accurate and I am, under penalty of perjury, the owner of the copyright that is beeing infringed.


What are the next steps for this situation? I don't want to damage anyone, but I think it isn't in your or your users interest to show more than one Add-on with the same funtions at the gallery.


Let me know if you have any questions or need more information for this process. I look forward to hearing from you!
