What you just described is called tortious interference or interference with contractual relations. Calling up someone's client and telling them their integrator did something wrong or bad by using the older, more liberally licensed version of iTextSharp can constitute civil malfeasance under the law if you induce the client to cancel any existing contract, back out of work, or discontinue a business relationship that otherwise would have remained intact. This is a tort under common law and suit can be brought against you to hold you liable for any damages the integrator incurred because of your interference. I sincerely hope iText have discontinued this practice, as it is not only illegal, but immoral.
