If you copy other peoples' content and host it from your servers, that's copyright infringement. It doesn't matter if you call it an RSS feed or if you just copy it exactly.
What you could do is offer people software that downloads web pages but strips the ads. This could be a neat feature of an RSS reader, or perhaps a plugin to another RSS reader, but I doubt you will be able to sell this on its own.
- alexdong 18y agoHmm, this makes sense. Since the algorithm is the core, I would also consider wrapping it as a web service. Charge on API usage or license the technology. The problem is, I don't have that much experience doing that. How can I find the target audiences? Also, since the algorithm is quite CPU intensive, how should I price the service? Add a markup to the average computing resources will cost? I'm trying to put a demo page so that you guys can try it out. Stay tuned.
