Is it a conflict of interest that you run scrape.it? What's your goal here?

Apparently he no longer owns scrape.it. He previously replied to my comment to say he sold it and to threaten legal action. He deleted the comment and sent me the following email:

> If this comment is not removed immediately I am going to have to involve legal. Scrape.it is no longer under my direct control, it has been acquired as of Feb 2019.

> Cheers,

> Scrape.it Founder

So I guess he was the founder but is no longer involved.

you are a fucking dick. doxxing people is against HN rules. I have flagged your comment.

oh. I see what we are dealing with here. a criminal.

It's not doxxing. I found his name through his past HN posts prior to his threatening email. Anyone can figure out who he is with less than 10 min of searching.
