Did you even read the article?

This is not the same Flappy Bird. The original game already has been preserved, the APK is floating around if you know where to look.

This new game is an outright scam using stolen IP to trick users into thinking this is the original.

They're scum for the grift but flappy bird doesn't deserve a trademark. US IP laws are draconian enough.
