Vkontakte vs Mail.ru Group

On July 4, vkontakte introduced changes to the rules , which read: “The VKontakte administration has the right to refuse to advertise for competing services and sites; services and sites with a similar or similar field of activity. "

Then I thought that this was done against facebook or google +, so that they could not promote themselves and did not think that this would affect ordinary mortals. But yesterday I realized that I was deeply mistaken:

On August 17, at the SumIT site , we, together with the Mail.ru Group, conduct the UI-day from Mail.Ru Group and of course we planned to use VK as one of the platforms to attract participants, but this is where we encountered the work of the new rules in full force.

After the indignation was over, I thought it was okay, you should remove the Mail logo, and they will have nothing to cling to, this resulted in the next announcement for our second meeting with Mail.ru - Social commerce day at SumIT from Mail.ru Group :

When they blocked him, I honestly envied VK administrators for their painstaking efforts, because it was not too lazy for them to follow the external link and see what the meeting was.

That's how we were, unwittingly, in the line of fire VKontakte and Mail.ru.
And in the meantime, experiments on circumventing Vkontakte administrators are continuing.
