If it's against the law, report it to the police; Don't take the law into your own hands. It makes you no better than what you're trying to expunge.

Protip: If you're coming up with a name for your new app, don't choose such a ubiquitous name as "The Magazine". An effective SEO strategy, mobile or web, will be a nightmare to develop/implement.

People with the pitchforks seem to be forgetting something.. 3Taps is not scraping Craigslist. Google is scraping Craigslist, and 3Taps is scraping Google. As far as common sense is concerned, Craigslist has no say concerning 3Taps data.

A main one for me is that 'Shortcuts don't pay off in the end'. It hurts when you, as a developer, pour your sole into your app only to have your partners take shortcuts and purchase 'likes', or otherwise 'stuff the ballot-box'. Take the ti

I'm pretty sure OHIP will cover your health expenses, but at the Ontario-based care rates.. You just have to submit receipts to OHIP. Everything extra would be out of pocket, and I see how that could be pricey.
