No one "lets" themselves get bogged down in it. Bureaucracy happens, as it did in this case, when you aren't planning on it. (This law only recently went into effect and didn't exist in 2009 when I started on FaceCash.) I keep going because when it does happen, it's a sign that you're onto something important. If anything, I think it's a shame that more startups don't tackle problems like these.
