    Just give them attribution:

    The project “ReVanced” is using Morphe GPL section 7 code that originated in the Morphe repo under Morphe authorship, but ReVanced is not following Morphe GPLv3 section 7b requirements as clearly explained in our Morphe license file here:

    https://github.com/MorpheApp/morphe-patches/blob/main/NOTICE

    Section 7b clearly states that all derivative and use of Morphe authored code must include a user facing attribution notice, which the ReVanced branch is not following. The ReVanced pull request linked above does not include any such user facing in-app notice, and [private] is in violation of the GPLv3 license he agreed to when he forked ReVanced from the Vanced repository. The code in that branch and PR are clearly from Morphe, as the co-author to most commits are Morphe developers and the code was lifted straight from the Morphe repo.
