1. Yes, I have had 3 potential clients mention this to me and initially I was a bit caught off guard. I am also concerned that it could be more and some decided to just not move forward because they believed outright that it was a "Scam".

2. I agree, I think I was a bit too worried because I do not know how to navigate this space "Gov Tech" very well.

Thankyou very much for your response; developing a product in a silo can cause tunnel vision which leads to blowing things out of proportion, your comment has really helped me to put things into perspective.

My biggest concern by far is that they seem to have put codify.inc on a registry so ISP's are blocking or showing the red "this is a scam - go back to safety" page. I really liked and invested a lot into that "branding".
