I don't buy this at all! Sell the App to someone who is prepared to fight the war .. marco has sold things before and knows how easy it is. (I have sold many apps, etc. Trust me.. it is very very easy)

My little hunch-o-maker tells me there is an untold part to this story and he's just trying to distract us from his real reasons.

If I were to guess, it was his tumblr/yahoo connections that reached out to him and asked him not do this. If he made a lot of money off of tumblr as a founder, than yeah, it'd be pretty sucky to build something that would hurt that product.

If it's an issue where he simply doesn't enjoy the feeling of creating Peace, as he says, selling it isn't a solution for that problem.
