On May 5th, without notice, and when I was busy preparing for a conference I presented at in Belgium this past Monday, Facebook® restricted Feathers's access rights, stopping it from posting status updates and thereby crippling the application. Unfortunately, this coincided with Feathers being featured on the German and Austrian app stores last week. This meant that a large group of people bought Feathers only to find that they could not update their Facebook® status with it.
I realized the extent of the issue only after returning from Belgium and immediately got in touch with Facebook® to find out why they had restricted the application and what I needed to do to get them to unlock our access. They replied to me on the evening of May 13th that it was because they considered the title of the app a trademark infringement (because it contained "for Facebook®") and because the icon contained the Facebook® "f".
