Shut down how? It's not being distributed by some fischer-price curated app store. Even if Alphabet companies essentially hire the judicial system to shut down or arrest troublesome developers for arbitrary reasons, it wouldn't stop piHole from being distributed p2p or stop others from picking up its updates and development, right?

I was too extreme with the term 'get shut down', which is obviously impossible as you say. I meant 'get action taken against them' which I argue will happen far before PiHole picks up in popular use.
what action can be taken against them?
