You think it's unethical to work at a company and then later create a copy of what the company does. Fairchild Semiconductors would like a quiet moment with you.
Does it still seem unethical if the proposition is inverted? What if a company figures out they no longer need your skills and/or labour. Is it unethical for them to lay you off? What if they actually had to do some work behind your back in order to figure out how to do this?
What do you think about a company that offers people a home for their digital creativity, and then uses that creativity to build technology that makes the skills and network their "users" have acquired over their lives worthless.
You'd expect the users to adapt to the situation, find new skills and get on with their lives right? Which is exactly what replit should do instead of sueing. Apparently they are well funded now so it should be a problem.
