## 假冒 macOS Notepad++ 网站警报一个欺诈网站 notepad-plus-plus-mac.org 虚假声称提供官方的 macOS 版 Notepad++。该网站**不**与真正的 Notepad++ 项目有关联，并且未经授权使用了商标甚至开发者的个人简历。 Notepad++ **从未**发布过 macOS 版本，该网站误导用户相信这是一个官方发布版本——甚至欺骗了一些科技媒体。开发者已联系该网站所有者，但仍在等待回复。建议用户保持警惕并传播信息：如果您在网上看到关于 macOS Notepad++ 发布的说法，请通过声明这是一个未经授权的项目，滥用 Notepad++ 商标，并链接到官方公告来纠正信息。社区的警惕对于保护项目的身份至关重要。

## 虚假Mac版Notepad++引发争议一名开发者在未经授权的情况下，创建了一款虚假的Mac版Notepad++，使用了已建立的品牌和商标。该项目在Hacker News和MacRumors等平台被报道后，引发了批评和商标纠纷。开发者最初抵制更改名称，尽管Notepad++的原始作者Don Ho提出了要求，但后来表示有意“发展品牌”。许多评论员认为该开发者试图利用Notepad++的声誉来获取市场份额。讨论的中心是开发者的动机，从天真和缺乏经验到故意利用品牌，不一而足。一些人认为该开发者应该受到公开谴责，而另一些人则建议专注于将该应用明确为独立移植版，并修改名称（例如“MacPad++”）。该事件还引发了人们对MacRumors软件推荐的审核流程，以及在人工智能辅助开发时代商标侵权的容易程度的质疑。Notepad++ *是* 注册商标。

Several users have recently reported a website pretending to offer an official macOS version of Notepad++: notepad-plus-plus-mac.org

Let me be blunt:
This site has absolutely nothing to do with Notepad++. It’s not authorized, not endorsed, and not affiliated with the project in any way.

The owner is using the Notepad++ trademark (the name) without permission;

and even goes as far as placing my name and biography on the site to make it look legitimate.

This is misleading, inappropriate, and frankly disrespectful to both the project and its users. It has already fooled people - including tech media - into believing this is an official release.

To be crystal clear:
Notepad++ has never released a macOS version.
Anyone claiming otherwise is simply riding on the Notepad++ name.

As mentioned in my GitHub post, I have already contacted the owner of the fake “official” website, and I am still waiting for a reply.

In the meantime, if you see someone posting “Notepad++ is finally on Mac!” on Reddit, Twitter, Mastodon, Discord, StackOverflow, or any tech blogs/forums, please reply with: “This is not an official Notepad++ release. It’s an unauthorized project misusing the Notepad++ trademark.”, and include a link to this announcement.

Thank you to the users who raised the alarm. Your vigilance helps protect the project from people who think they can borrow the Notepad++ identity as they please.

– Don Ho
