Very bad slippery slope this will take you down
IMO, no one should ever be touching anything installed on my system, if I
installed an addon then I want it there and no one has any right to remove it
for me or doing anything to it.. there have already been issues of this
happening before and no one was very pleased about it
Basically - who are you to decide what I can and cannot run on my system?
Sean's suggestion is a much better passive aggressive approach, disable your
own addon from running, though I still wonder if anything of the sort should be
done

Based on the recent post on the Kodi web site, I thought of a similar feature.
I imagined an addon that would detect blacklisted addons, and if it finds one
either:
1) Uninstall the blacklisted addons
2) Disable the blacklisted addons
3) Uninstall the "Blacklist Check Addon" itself
Then different addon developers could put a dependancy on "Blacklist Check
Addon" in their addon.xml (For case 3 - the addon wouldn't start as it's
dependancy is missing?)
Thoughts?

Hi guys,
I'm not sure if this is the correct place to send this question, but I thought
I'd give it a try, as I'm sure other developers may also be interested.
I get the impression that my Super Favourites addon is being used on a fair
number of the "builds" that are flooding the market places.
If I were to add code that prevented it from working on such builds would the
adddon still be allowed in the official repo?
I haven't actually looked to see whether this would be feasible (looking for
the presence of certain addons would probably do it - I could probably use some
sort of black list) but I thought I'd ask the question first.
Best Regards,
Sean
