Ask HN:VC 资助的初创公司潜伏在我的社区 Slack 频道里——该如何回应?

我经营着一家小型、自筹资金的开源初创公司,专注于一个细分领域。我们的增长缓慢但稳定,随着产品的成熟,我们开始赢得更大的客户。<p>最近,该领域内领先的供应商(获得了 5000 万美元的融资,拥有数十名员工)开始潜伏在我们的社区 Slack 频道中,并向我们的社区成员发送冷邮件,向他们提供价值数千美元的免费积分,以诱使他们转用他们的产品。邮件并未在我们的 Slack 频道中公开,所以他们是通过获取人们的姓名,然后通过谷歌搜索他们的工作单位来推断他们的电子邮件地址的。<p>该供应商的员工使用假名注册,因此无法直接将他们从 Slack 频道中封禁。<p>有没有人遇到过类似的情况?如果是,你们是怎么做的?

I run a small bootstrapped open source startup in a niche space. Growth is slow but steady and we're starting to win larger customers as the product matures.<p>Recently, the leading vendor in this space ($50 million in funding, dozens of employees) has starting camping out in our community Slack and cold-emailing our community members, offering them thousands of dollars worth of free credits to switch to them. Emails are not exposed in our slack, so they are getting people's names and googling where they work to deduce their email.<p>The vendor's employees are registering under fake names so there's no straightforward way to ban them from the Slack.<p>Has anyone else been in this situation, if so what did you do?
