Doubt. Whatever it is your app does, I bet corporations would have been forced to hire more people to do it for them, were it not for you.

And there's absolutely nothing "unethical" about it either. Toil is meant to be automated away. What I can't take is programmers thinking they're somehow above this.

The only crime here is stopping before AI replaces the CEOs and politicians. It should keep happening relentlessly until capitalism itself collapses and a post scarcity society is achieved.
