Anyone here who believes that they have been arbitrarily and capriciously suspended by SI, please PM me with your info. I'm contemplating litigation against SI, and would like to see whether there is a case for a charge of systemic arbitrary and capricious application of the TOU.
Let me know also whether you want your comments kept confidential or don't care.
TIA

and that shortly thereafter, Poet was informed that the instruction that CH not post to or about her on SI was rescinded.
And that SI declined to give a reason for the sudden change, except that there was no indication that it applied to anyone but you. It was not presented as a revocation of all "to or about" rules.
Circumstantial evidence. Possibly there was no connection between your threat of suing them and their suddenly changing their minds and deciding you should, after all, be able to resume posting to and about a woman who feels quite deeply about being left alone by you, simply because your argument to that effect had seemed to them, suddenly, so very persuasive on its own.
And in the background of my interpretation of the circumstantial evidence is that I believe the post you made to her containing the nasty, and very personal, insinuation fully justified her request to SI that you not be able to post to or about her after it was removed and your suspension for it was ended. I tend to believe, on the basis of the circumstantial evidence, that it was more than friendly persuasion that got them to change their minds. |
