Thank you all for your comments.

The intent of the post was to share experiences and lessons, not to promote what we did at Pingjam. We already went through that discussion several months ago when we were working to get Pingjam accepted by developers. Some developers (including very respectable apps) liked our service and tried us out, some did not. To each their own. Since I don't think it's useful to discuss what we did - I'll refrain from fully explaining what we did, why we thought it was a good thing, the value that the service provided to users or how we made sure to follow best practices on opt-ins, opt-outs, privacy, etc'. You are welcome to think what you want about our service.

Regardless of whether you like the service we provided or not, we went through a certain set of experiences that can be useful to others. If you choose to take anything from that - I hope it helps you in whatever you are doing.
