Here come the down votes from developers who hold Stripe into such esteem. That's right, if a business does not fit your view of a "business" then they must be a scammer.

It's legit for you to factually describe your situation and raise questions about it. And it's legit to use a throwaway account to do so, since there are sensitive business matters involved.

It's not legit for you to break the HN guidelines by yelling, calling names, hounding, and going on about downvoting. Those things aren't allowed on HN. They also aren't in your interest, since doing them reflects badly on your credibility. I know it's hard to resist the temptation to lash out at something you perceive as restricting you unfairly, but if you want to comment here, that's what we need you to do.
