A social engineering firm, AEI (Affinity Engines), is suing Google because they claim that an engineer Orkut Buyukkokten used the affinity code in the development of Googles social engineering code.

quote:

In addition to nearly identical text found in similar features in orkut.com and Affinity Engine's social networking products, the suit cited several identical software problems in each company's service.

quote:

"In its initial investigation, AEI (Affinity Engines) uncovered a total of nine unique software bugs ... in AEI's inCircle product that were also present in orkut.com," according to the lawsuit. "The presence of these bugs in both products is highly indicative of a common source code.... orkut.com contains software and source code copied, developed or derived from AEI's inCircle software or source code."

Dr. Dembski claims that it is possible to detect design by using his filter. Is this another example that would support Dr. Dembski? Wired News report on lawsuit
