A Toronto software developer responsible for a browser plug-in to block Justin Bieber news has received death threats for his creation.
Fans of the 16-year-old singer have flooded programmer Greg Leuch's inbox with complaints about the program, which he has posted publicly on his website.
Alex, wrote: "I just wanted to give you the heads-up that you will have MANY people that are enraged with you. I'm talking 5,000,000. Me included.
"I realise that you're just stating an opinion, but what you're doing is going back to World War II all over again. Hitler wanting to erase Jews from society - you want to erase Justin Bieber."
Leuch said that he created the application in six hours after his friends complained about the frequency of Bieber's presence in their online browsing.
"One said, 'Dude, you have to do something so I can quit seeing Justin Bieber online'. I was like, 'Damn, I can do this'," he told the Toronto Sun.
Leuch is currently designing similar programs aimed at celebrities such as Lady GaGa and Britney Spears.
