Ask HN: A social media company is hostile to my side project. Do I fight or not?
I run an app that crowd sources the collection of comments so you can see what gets censored, changed or deleted. It gained a good amount of popularity (about 40k users) and I even started charging for it.
I've managed to break out of api jail, but my app has been taken out of the chrome marketplace at this companies request. I have options, but I'm sure the conflict will continue.
Does HN have experience dealing with larger hostile entities? Am I destined to get beat down by overwhelming force? I'd love to hear about how similar situations played out.
