Then it also makes no sense to not comply with the request. "It was just a weekend project" is not a legal defense.
If I complied with every request like this, I wouldn't have made a single successful website. You shouldn't be so afraid to stand up for yourself. Entrepreneurs need to have thick skin and not buckle under every little bit of pressure.
Every website you made received requests like these? If you don't mind me asking, what kind of websites do you make? I've never received requests like these myself.
I have been asked to remove profiles, data, images, features, the entire website, the domain, links, the list goes on. Sometimes just a few, sometimes an amount that would cripple the business. Most of the claims are overreaching bullying or ignorance. Sometimes they are just completely out of their mind nut jobs that don't understand how stuff works.
