Wait until for them to close your account with the pretext of "your account has violated our community guidelines", no legal justification whatsoever if some people decide to spam that report button lol stop using these bullshit platforms that see you as nothing but a number. Hell, you might be earning your life through Instagram or YouTube, and all it takes for them to delete your years of content is pressing one button.

+1. I was releasing free fucking music for indie devs who didn't have budget or limited budget for this kinda stuff, some mf on reddit who was selling his music saw this, contacted admins to claim it was made via AI, then they took the post down without doing any investigation or even contacting me. Labeled as made with AI. I've worked in the industry for over 10 years, there's literally 0 reason for me to use AI to make music lol From that point onward I just pulled out all of my free libraries from public, if it's that easy to mislabel somebody's hard work, and only give the download codes for free for people who did contact me personally and that I was sure they were actually building something.

I'll give you one even better, my phone was stolen in Mannheim by the German police (yeap, the police, I'll even give you the station name: Polizeirevier-Neckarstadt-Mannheim), we ofc contacted every single God damn company on earth to unlink our associated Gmail accounts (since 2fa locks you out and google has zero human monitored channels to contact them in addition to deploying catch-22) openai's response was we should contact a medical personnel to arrange a therapy session lol

I say I will give everyone, not only the Americans, but every single citizen of earth, 100,000 dollars if I'm elected for the presidency by not joining the election.

And there will be flying bicycles, not cars, but bicycles by 2029.

Sounds so stupid, doesn't it? You wouldn't make this news, because I'm a regular ass citizen. Why do we keep hearing about all these stupid ass thoughts/propaganda bullshit left and right from every god damn field? This is BBC lol not your local news channels. My local news channel make better news. Hell, at least they can call something stupid, if it's stupid.

What a joke and corrupt world we're living in.

Open letter to everyone here, who's tired of these corporate bullshits and wanna take action: Let's start discussing the solid/concrete steps that we can start taking rather than screaming into the void:

I was personally going after big corporations (To name a few: PayPal, Patreon, Microsoft, Google, anything that Epic Games own, Bandcamp, Artstation, etc.), any state organs who do receive my complaints but hide behind institutional shields, deploying administrative silence, concealing their full name and title during official correspondence and I did and am still getting results through judicial/consumer protection law oriented bodies such as CFPB, DFPI, Federal Trade Commission, and even going after some German judges who refused to initiate a court case when they're informed that the criminals were German police officers. Doesn't matter if it's a company or a judge, you do can go after them. It all boils down to whether you wanna take action or just complain about it online. The latter as we all know doesn't fruit to anything.

I can create a detailed guideline on how to go after these motherfuckers legally for free, which laws they're blatantly breaking, how to contact these regulatory bodies, what to cite in your legal complaints and so on. We can even start a god damn funding pool to take these motherfuckers to court.

I'm open to hear anyone's opinion on what else we can do, what steps we can take. If I can get results, imagine the fuss we can create with an unified voice.

They can brand him as whatever they like, as long as we do not unify and start taking action, these criminals will stay in charge. Is he charged with ANY of the crimes he committed? Hell no. How come a known criminal is still in the office? We all know how it is. Governments are, no exception to any government are just elite hypocrites. WE DO NEED TO UNIFY FOR OUR VOICES TO BE HEARD. What happened to the Epstein files? We must talk about these stuff everywhere every second to the point no matter how hard they cooperate with big tech to censor us, they won't be able to. The only way to do that is to unify. Period. Do contact me or leave a comment if you are tired of seeing similar news every single day with no repercussions. We gotta do something.

I am just replying to this comment to inform others since I find comments like this, whether stated intentionally or not, discourage people from seeking their rights by pushing the narrative that "nothing is going to happen, they will never reply or escalate anyway." If you have never needed to take a company to court, I hope you never do, but stating that serves two key purposes:

Asking customer support to escalate a matter to the legal department holds weight in court. This does not mean they actually will (in practice, some do and some don't, and that is not the main point). It gives you the leverage to state in a legal complaint/in court/whatever, whether it is with the FTC or another agency, that "we informed the company, asked them to contact their legal department, and the handling officer failed to do so." This immediately establishes that the company is acting in bad faith.

If you are already in official correspondence with any department of a corporation or government agency, they are obligated by law to forward your notice. Period. The rest is just personal opinion. It does not even matter which department you send your complaint to, if their legal channel is not publicly and easily accessible; hell, it can even be an unmonitored channel. Forwarding legal notices is a mandatory legal duty backed by law. Most companies will tell you to fill out a specific form or contact them through a designated portal and you certainly can, but you are under no legal obligation to do so.

Most people will not file a formal complaint or lack the time/financial resources to pursue a court case. Companies rely on this reality and force you to use their web forms for this exact reason: to create a labyrinth without a verifiable paper trail. Depending on the company, it might be simple to find the correct department, but let’s be realistic: how many big tech companies publish their legal department's contact address in a way that is public and easily accessible?

If the channel is publicly available and open, it is not the user's responsibility to find the exact internal routing for the legal department. This is precisely why we have bad-faith and transparency laws. The company and the handling officer will need to legally explain why they failed to escalate the matter to the competent department. Users cannot be unfairly burdened if the proper legal channel is not easily accessible to the public. Know your rights.

The phone call for 2FA is just an automated call that you input a number to confirm you’re the person trying to sign in.

As you did not read the post clearly, the 2FA verification code goes to the stolen phone, which has nothing to do with the post I created here. The phone number they are demanding is simply to contact me via another phone number, which they claim is the only(!) way to prove ownership. And we are asking: why exactly, and on what legal grounds? There is no answer to that at all.

The point here is that companies cannot legally limit communication methods to a single channel. There are people with speech impairments, hearing issues, or social anxiety, or maybe you just feel under the weather and don't want to have a phone conversation. This is textbook discrimination.

Yeah, let's not fucking ever forget that, primarily Trump, and the criminals under his command protecting him are fucking pedophiles. Since the exposure of their crimes, only one fucking person was judged. One. Main stream media as always is doing amazing job covering it up.

Can you gdpr them?

I am not entirely sure if you meant whether I can file a compliance complaint, yes, I/you can. The thing is, I contacted them on my own first, around July 2nd I suppose. (I lost access to this account on June 27, 2026, and today is September 17, 2026. Whoever has access to my account can basically do anything they want with it, thanks to Microsoft not caring about the law. I will also give a bit more explanation as to why our response above might be seen as harsh)

Then they sent out this form, which I filled out completely, and even attached my government ID since I was also using their wallet system for some things, so they could cross-reference it with PayPal and other banking accounts I have linked there.

The response I received was: ticket closed, we couldn't identify this as your account. I asked for the legal justification for their action, based on what legal ground/actions they initiated and they decided this wasn't my account, and waited for a while, about 15 days or so, with no response at all. Then I contacted my lawyers, and we filed a regulatory complaint in both the US and the EU, to which they responded two weeks after those complaints were filed.

The screenshot attached here is from when our patience finally ran out. We were contacted by this dude who conceals his full name (For most people, this might seem normal, but I also come from a legal military background, and it instantly bothers me, as one asks for the full name of the handling officer, they can either give up their full name, if their policy allows it, some don't which I can respect, then they can explain this and give you a numerical ID assigned by the company, so you can contact their supervisors to file a complaint about them, you can not just ignore this request as if it never came up) If a company or government official conceals their name and completely ignore that question, I know they are going to hide behind a corporate shield and try to talk down to you with arrogance. Unlawful actions take place the moment they do this. I wish to be proven wrong one day, but every single time a conversation opens like this, it ends up with them breaking the law. I just cannot tolerate this shit.) and demands a phone number.

We asked him what the legal justification was for claiming they can only verify information via phone, and stated that we would give them one if they could back it up with a legal basis from either US or EU laws. He completely ignored it, copy-pasted his exact same reply, and said, 'Let's arrange a phone call.'

We told him the same thing: a phone number will be provided if they can quote from the law stating it is mandated and that post or email is not sufficient.** He then ignored it again** and sent the exact same email. At that point, we demanded his full name, which as we expected, of course he did not give up, to avoid individual liability and he said this is Microsoft's policy. In every single correspondence, we reminded him that he is breaking transparency laws by concealing his name and that corporate policy does not supersede the law. Of course, he ignored all of this. At that point, we issued the notice above.

After this, he still sent the very same copy-paste email, lol, two or three times more. We don't even think this is a real person but AI, but it doesn't really matter. This isn't the first time I'm dealing with a big corporation pulling this kind of bullshit, but this time I got really dedicated to getting a precedent-setting decision, so I will not settle for anything. We have to take them to mediation first, for which we filled out the forms today, because it is in their terms of use and this is how they protect their public image. But I will not settle, and take it to court, seriously, fuck this shit.

+1, I also stopped shopping from any market that forces self-checkouts. I waste more time, I scan my own stuff, and for what exactly? So the company can earn more money by kicking out their employees? Why the fuck don't we even get a discount for "working briefly" in their market? Nothing these companies pull off ever benefits the society.

Offering the option is one thing, forcing it down your throat is another.

I will strongly disagree with this statement, as there's a serious allegation against GPC, and no legal justification has been published by the authorities.

If there's a legal reason with backing evidence, there's no reason not to share why she was dismissed, and public has every right to know this decision, that's exactly why we have the transparency laws.

Your statement is no different than an assumption where an immigrant claiming they were not discriminated in Germany yet, therefore there's no discrimination against other immigrants.

Do you guys remember EU Parliament came up with that stupid ass I give my consent to cookie policy yes/no policy? Most European Parliament bodies did not even implement that themselves lol if I'm not mistaken, Human rights commission website has no reject cookies button at all, and if you do not click on accept button, you can not even display the contact anchor hid behind the cookie consent banner :D

I have zero faith in any government doing anything good for their regular citizens. FTC 5 explicitly states any company or government agency MUST provide the personnel name if you're contacting a place. Go contact Ubisoft, steam, Patreon, epic games, European banking authority, askep, Ireland bank and so on. They're all breaking the consumer protection laws blatantly, completely disregarding transparency policies. Why the fuck would anyone follow these rules if law makers do not even follow the very same law they came up with :D

I think it's time to start discussing what steps we can take from this point onward. People are, including myself are tired of being treated like a fucking worm in this system and all I see is unify, let's unify, it's time that we unify... What are the steps we can actually take? I wrote in another topic I can teach people how to go after PayPal and other big tech hypocrites through regulatory bodies that I got positive results from. Let's discuss what we can do destroy the public image of these two faced criminals. They can always earn more money, but you can't buy public image with your money, remember guys.

I see your point and would like to add, the issue is, some people are like bricks. Like, you could get a more logical reaction(!) from a brick than these people. You could literally paint something in front of them, and they'd still claim it's not your own work. Like, there's no way of proving your innocence/righteousness, no matter what evidence you put in front of them. I can not wrap my head how we can communicate with these people.

I wish you were not right, but you are. They'd even go further and say I'm an environmentalist, I'd do anything to protect the world that belongs to all of us. Fucking hypocrites.

Another reminder for the ones who don't know, since BBC doesn't like exposing their own government either, the UK is no different than the states. Go read how asylum seekers are treated, mocked, dehumanized in the UK. I'm talking about people who were fucking raped in their own country, escaped their homeland due to death threats, some even got fucking shot literally. What does the UK do? Trying to force these people sign papers that they wouldn't understand, to send them back their home country.

Man, I miss the good old days when we had some communities and places where we could meet up with people from our neighborhood or whatever. Everything in the world became so much poisonous, most individuals are brain washed and all they care about is "self". Hell, they even commercialized meeting up with that meetup website.

I literally sat down and thought about this very same topic today: What are we supposed to do when we're not at work or commuting? Try to form a band? Everybody wants to play a very specific "self" music. Join in a hobby class? No thanks capitalism. Volunteer? I don't even feel like my time is appreciated there anymore, like on purpose I'm being felt into thinking "you're doing a free labour for us!!!"

I really miss the times when we could simply meetup and talk about whatever. People had a lot more empathy, and there was a social code that would punish you if you're being selfish and rude, now it feels the opposite.

You would be shocked to find out how racists modern Germany still is, carrying the exact mindset of WW1 and WW2: Germans vs others. I wouldn't be surprised to find out this picture is real.

I was fucking assaulted in my own bedroom and abducted by the Polizeirevier-Neckarstadt-Police officers in Mannheim, on June 26 2026, they then forced me to sign a paper which I did not, then they threatened me then we'll come again tomorrow, which they do on 27 June 2026, all of these are on the video, directly supported by the official medical assault report issued by Theresien Hospital, explicitly stating the assault, how they left me on the street without my glasses, keys, IDs, shoes and so on.

You know what happened after that? German judges from Karlsruhe issued on an official paper that they have no obligation to investigate a case like this :D Sparkasse Rhein Neckar Nord frooze my financial assets, bafin personnel (supposedly the banking regulatory body) blatantly confessed on an official document they sanitized the evidence of the crimes and so on, no court order, no investigation, no nothing. They're all on active duty. If you don't believe this shit, send me a message, I'll send the direct video links of the exposed so called police officers commiting these crimes, that I'm hosting on Rumble. Medical assault reports and all of the official replies with wet inked signature that I received from neo Nazi judges on teletype.

Germans have this "the state makes no mistakes!!!" mindset. You just can not break that wall whatever you do. They're so blind to racism, since it doesn't happen to them in their own country. That's the logic of Germans.
