I'm not familiar with the ins and outs of app development, is it possible for one app to detect the presence of another? If yes then it won't take long before there will be retaliation.



Sounds like you are suggesting a clear cut antitrust case.


That's the kind of restriction an employer would place on an employee...


Even if you could, you would run into 1099 issues (US specific) pretty quickly.
