How many dollars worth of goods has this application steered users away from? That sounds like the SOPA promoter's "how much money did piracy cost us" considering each download as one missed/lost sale. Please do not fall for that yourself.

Companies support SOPA based on that reasoning, it only seems consistent to say "by your own metric, you lost $XM of sales".

  I'd consider it much more important to stay truthful than to descent to such blatant propaganda.

    I am disappointed that the mob downvoted you for an honest, reasonable, principled statement.
