Favit by Favstar.fm brings the funniest tweets to your iPhone
Don't know where to look for the funniest material on Twitter? Favstar.fm keeps tracks of the most-favorited tweets on the site, and delivers them all in one place. And now they've got an iPhone app that's even better! It's called Favit and its extremely simple UI delivers the laughs directly to your face, with no clutter involved.

How can it be legal that this FavIt developer is making money from other people's jokes? (i.e.: creative property) Especially with the tweets anonymized, Tim Haines isn't even giving credit where it is due. Nor does he offer an opt-out for Twitter users, thus commercializing off of other people's creative property without consent nor claim. He's not quoting. He's stealing. Unless a portion of all proceeds from sales go to all Twitter users, and an opt-out is offered, this application can not be legal.
