Theorically, the documentation of the protocol says : "The exact meaning of \"copy\" can vary from class to class, but a copy must be a functionally independent object with values identical to the original at the time the copy was made."

As others have pointed out, this is acceptable behaviour, but in case you were wondering you can create a REAL copy of a string using initWithString (or stringWithString).
