http://imgur.com/gallery/B0Oyt6H/new Does anyone know what this is and how this dev gets away with this. Ad was in a hong kong subway station so it is fairly legitimate and public ad. I know league of legends does operate in china. So how does this company get away with this and did they get permission from riot?

League was also almost an OVERNIGHT game. No one was on then booooooooooooooooom took off. I can only imagine just by seeing how effective and engaged their PR staff is that their legal missed loop holes left and right. Even so, it's another country have you ever tried to file for anything over seas? MESSSY.

Like i said, not triyng to get into the technicalities, moving on.
Offended1 votesChina simply does not recognize international copyright. There is, unfortunately, no way for U.S. based companies to pursue litigation against Chinese companies (unless they have a presence in the U.S.) due to how unregulated the businesses are in China.
To answer your question: Yes, everyone knows what that is. The dev(s) get away with it because there is no way to pursue legal challenge due to their anonymity and geographical location. And lastly, they most likely did not get permission from Riot. There are literally hundreds of League ripoffs with the exact same champions named "Gary" instead of "Garen". It's disgusting, it's happening, and there's nothing anyone can do.

I don't think they care about anything really.
