    Joe, that's exactly what you did do (well, not the scum part).
"Purposefully exclusionary" doesn't ascribe any motive to your
decision, it could be monetary as you mention, or completely
arbitrary.  By "purposefully", I meant "willfully", which I think you
have admitted.  The end result is the same, a set of users who can't
use your site.
