The attitude you describe can easily hurt their business. They may be future paying customers that are exploring your service, or don't have the money yet to subscribe. And even in the latter group there is an opportunity for building brand loyalty.
But to see these opportunities, the first step is to not have a hostile attitude towards your users.
- number_six 8y agobut you forgot how businesses work these days: Fuck you, Pay me
- kaelin 8y agoThat's how all businesses have worked since the beginning of time.
- majewsky 8y agoNo, that was just "pay me for this service/good". Most businesses who ventured into "fuck you" territory would soon be out of business because disgruntled customers opens up opportunities for competition to rise. Sadly, you don't have that anymore with today's economy-of-scale effects.

- EpicEng 8y agoRight, I really miss the good ol' days when business was all "Hey guy, I like you, here's some free stuff."
