Re: Ethics of Dealing with Evil by gryphon Greetings all, Thanks for the great responses so far. One thing I did forget to mention is the fact that the Web service in question is actually the second we've done for this particular contact within GRWBSC, and it's the fourth we've done for the particular group/team within GRWBSC. All four projects were on LAMP technology, and we were very up front about that on our first contract. No one seemed to care until someone high up got word and got ticked.

This makes a difference, but you should still try to bring it up with your client (in a very blame-free way) that better requirements next time may keep you from having to be in this situation.
