Two points I want to make:
  1. You cannot copyright an idea or a concept, only expression, and even duplicate expression may not be actionable under copyright law, depending on ... a lot of things.
  2. Copyright law is subtle and complicated, and even lawyers who don't specialize in it should leave it to the lawyers who do.

And because my expertise is patent law, not copyright, and even more importantly because I do not know the dispositive facts about this particular alleged copying, that's all I'm going to say about it.
You can self study law on the internet, there's a thing called online research, did u know? I researched into Nixon's lawsuits, and let me tell you, they are AGGRESSIVE, and it doesn't matter if it's win or lose, it will drag Square into legal trouble and distract them.
