Ask HN: How to evaluate a start-up idea and yet be sure no one 'borrows' it?
I have an idea for an internet service and would love to put this idea on HN and ask for opinions before I commence on it, but that would most likely be equal to losing it if it's a good one. So is there a safe way to evaluate a start-up idea on the internet?

- bonzoq 14y agoDo you think I shouldn't care and just ask HN what they think about it?
