请问HN:在我所在社区的Slack中发现了一家获得风险投资的初创公司——我该如何回应?

我经营一家小型的自筹资金的开源初创公司,专注于一个小众领域。虽然增长缓慢,但却稳步上升,我们开始赢得一些大型客户,因为我们的产品逐渐成熟。 最近,这个领域的领先供应商(获得了5000万美元的融资,拥有数十名员工)开始在我们的社区Slack中频繁出现,并向我们的社区成员发送冷邮件,提供数千美元的免费积分以吸引他们转向使用他们的产品。我们的Slack中并没有公开邮件地址,因此他们通过获取人们的名字并在网上搜索他们的工作单位来推测出他们的邮箱。 该供应商的员工使用假名注册,因此我们没有简单的方法可以将他们从Slack中禁用。 有没有人遇到过这种情况?如果有,你们是怎么处理的?

I run a small bootstrapped open source startup in a niche space. Growth is slow but steady and we&#x27;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&#x27;s names and googling where they work to deduce their email.<p>The vendor&#x27;s employees are registering under fake names so there&#x27;s no straightforward way to ban them from the Slack.<p>Has anyone else been in this situation, if so what did you do?
