      @gruber Did you and The Deck take @marcoarment into a windowless room and make him "an offer he couldn't refuse?" He walked from $50k a day.

          @gruber @defiance @marcoarment okay but we're you trying to convince him to whitelist The Deck? Be honest.

          @rmrx8 @defiance @marcoarment Yes, of course. I think content blockers should block “crap”, not “ads”, and The Deck is not crap.

          @marcoarment I wasn't sure what your solution would be, but this seems like a good one.

          @gruber @defiance @marcoarment Proof that Marco's a developer with the courage of his convictions. Wish more app devs had that trait.

          @thecoldfrog @gruber @marcoarment Sorry. I don't argue on the Internet. (@SmileSoftware another responsible dev made my response VERY easy.)

          @Nick_Potts_144 @gruber @defiance @marcoarment I mean the code base.

          @CarusoApps I know, but hypothetically by the time you purchase the code and submit to the app store it's too late. Besides he won't sell

        @gruber @marcoarment I hope you rethink this. By getting out of the game you can’t influence this the right way. ur smart, figure it out

          @gruber @marcoarment So he would compensate some harm he think to have inflicted, while not upsetting his customers. That's responsible.

          @josemalcaide Customers bought a working product that still works. They didn’t buy @marcoarment’s eternal servitude to their feelings.

          @bjkirton @marcoarment I think that "pull out and run" is irresponsible. Pull out, yes, and then work on an update which undoes the harm.

          @jtropey @marcoarment @gruber don't sell it, give it to @EFF. I'm sure @Ghostery won't mind.
