    Maybe you should contact your member of congress. If this approach is being used by a company or companies, then perhaps it is time for law makers to make these people accountable for their actions/inactions. Relatively, these types of business are a new thing, and laws governing their actions aren't adequately developed. They should be, at least, responsible for explaining their actions in such circumstances.

    • @Patriotsglow
      @Patriotsglow  7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I didn't think about this, but it is a possibility to try and have someone answer for the unfair actions they take because they don't agree with someone else's practices or principals.

    I feel for you.
    But also I can't believe how many people this happens to and they always seem shocked.
    You are doing business with them without a contract. Without any legal papers that say what you and them can and cannot do.
    There's even more paperwork just to buy a candy bar from a store.
    Don't make your lively hood depend on something you don't have any contract with. Hobby, sure.

    • @a9ball1
      @a9ball1 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @Patriotsglow true. And I have heard it's better than Craigslist. I'm too concerned about scammers and bad checks to sell on either one.
      But you are not alone. I've also heard horror stories about TH-cam and it's ad revenue and locking out channels for stupid reasons.
