Ask HN: Starting a company for new app
What is the best thing to do before you release an app as an individual developer? Should I incorporate or is it best to release it as an individual and then transfer rights afterwards?

I changed the Chromium browser (as a masters project) to intercept suspicious extension actions like inserting elements etc and to alert users of what the extension is attempting to do. Using this proof-of-concept browser would have helped you debug your ad injection problem!

One of the reasons the Chrome browser uses one process per tab is so that memory between web-pages is isolated. By doing this, an attacker in control of a renderer process cannot read data from another renderer process (web-page).
It seems like Firefox has made a security / memory tradeoff here since renderer processes can render multiple (4 by default) web-pages at a time.

But the cost of incorporating is really tiny isn't it (£15 in the UK where I live)? And I'm thinking about what users think seeing an app created by a person vs a company
