I have multiple mentions crediting the original creator and linking back to him (within the README on GitHub as well as on the website itself), so it's not like I'm trying to make it seem like the code is my own. The purpose of [redacted] is to ensure that there is always a version of the original Wordle site that will remain available for free (without any major modifications or differences).

As for the licensing, I chose a license that would require anyone using [redacted] to give credit and disclose source, ensuring that all further forks and derivative forks would point back to the original Wordle site and would have to use the same license to continue the requirement of giving credit where credit is due.

I've already notified the original creator of Wordle, and of course if he or NYT demands that the content be taken down on the grounds of copyright violation, that's a completely different story.

It should be noted that I'm not making any money off of Wordle or the Wordle brand (unlike many others).
