This is true. Though from the posts I see on GFY the past few years, it appears there are an awful lot of hobbyists here and/or those do not treat their pursuits as part of an actual business or commercial entity. Indeed, it must be awfully difficult for some people since the contest threads have disappeared.
My point, however, is that most people tend to not think outside the box and treat people as potential customers. They'd rather jerk them around or redirect them because they blocked a banner. I'm suggesting treating your sites like an actual business (which indeed includes licensing your software) and benefiting long term from the sustainability of your actions.
