Is Skype blocked the application of the fringe, or was it the fringe removed support for Skype. Versions War
Perring against Skype
The struggle began last week, when-Fring released a new version of its application iOS4 operating system, which operates the iPhone, iPod touch Vayeped. The new application allows users to make video calls via Skype with other devices, not Apple, that they can use both wireless networking and mobile connectivity to speak. However, hours after launch, the option was canceled, said that this fringe is due to congestion created by the popularity of the software.
But since then, no back support. Fringe says that the reason for this is Skype blocking them, and after four years Perring stopped to allow users to connect to Skype's protocol. The company also released a press release, which they call Skype cowards who are afraid of competition. Skype hastened to say, and claim that they are precisely those who lie Perring - Skype is not blocking the service. In addition, the accused's legal department head fringe Skype breach of the terms of use of the service, and harming its brand.
Perring's accusations
For 4 years we have led mobile communication innovation, most recently with video calling on any advanced Smartphone and network.
Now that fring expanded capacity to support the huge demand for video calling for all users, Skype has blocked us from doing so.
They are afraid of open mobile communication. Cowards.
Needless to say, we are very disappointed that Skype, who once championed the cause of openness is now trying to muzzle competition, even at the expense of its own users.
We’re sorry for the inconvenience Skype has caused you.
As always, fring will continue to provide our users with the best mobile internet communication experiences that you deserve, with or without Skype.
The new fring version with free video calls, calls, live chat is available on any advanced smartphone, over any mobile operator, over your preferred internet connection (3G, 4G, WiFi) from the fring website here and app stores.
The Comment Of Skype
Fring’s mis-use of Skype software was damaging to our brand and reputation
An hour or so ago, Fring reported on their blog that we had blocked their access to Skype. I want to make one thing absolutely clear: this is untrue.Fring was using Skype software in a way it wasn’t designed to be used – and in a way which is in breach of Skype’s API Terms of Use and End User License Agreement. We’ve been talking with Fring for some time to try to resolve this amicably.
However, over time, Fring’s mis-use of our software was increasingly damaging our brand and reputation with our customers. On Friday, for example, Fring withdrew support for video calls over Skype on iOS 4 without warning, again damaging our brand and disappointing our customers, who have high expectations of the Skype experience.
We actively encourage developers to build products that work with Skype, acting, of course in accordance with our various API licences. At the same time, Skype will rigorously protect our brand and reputation, and those developers that do not comply with our terms will be subject to legal enforcement.
In this case, however, there is no truth to Fring’s claims that Skype has blocked it. Fring made the decision to remove Skype functionality on its own.
