i wouldn't claim that it's not crossing a line of some sort (professional vs non-professional).

i tend to like aggressive moves by startups. i also thought wepay freezing cash i huge ice blocks and dumping it at a paypal meet was pretty clever.

sometimes startups do unprofessional things. they're certainly not always justifiable, and things would become a shitshow really fast if everyone did them all the time, but i can't help but smile when i see occasional transgressions when the person who is hurt is Goliath.




I guess people were kinder to wepay because the hive-mind was pissed-off at ebay at the time (and still kind of is).
