Any time you have a statically-typed language consuming you. Having to write my own Jackson declarations to pull in your API to a JVM project or my own DataContract barf for a CLR one is a quick way to make me hate you, and me hating you means I'm already looking for an alternative that isn't you that gets out of my way.
