Google Workspace is but the CLI is not. These are 2 related but different products. Had he just released it under his name then that wouldn't have been such a big issue, maybe, but he used the Google logo which implied it was Google blessed. If I did the same thing, they would have a case for suing me. Just because you work for Google does not mean you can release products under their name. Google spends countless of man-hours to make sure whatever product they put out is as good as possible. And support it on any issues that are found along the way. All companies protect their logo to a high degree simply because of the implications it has when people see it. | ||||||||

It was not released under his name. It is in Google's own googleworkspace Github Organization, alongside 57 other similar projects that consume from the same API. The organization hosts repos shown here: https://developers.google.com/workspace/drive/api/samples > Google spends countless of man-hours to make sure whatever product they put out is as good as possible That's 100% not true for those kinds of projects. There's plenty of "not officially supported" projects in Google's Github. | ||||||||
