Great news, in just one week, my Consumer Affairs complaint went from 27,058 views to 27,590. That's 532 more eyes that have seen the proof. (I haven't checked in with Jonathan Nielsen to find out his new tally, yet).
And when I first visited Consumer Affairs, I read a complaint by Edward of Olympia, WA (submitted on Dec. 30th, 2011). A few disturbing quotes of his (and I'm citing fair use):
"... without any reason, in one fell swoop everyone of my hubs was unpublished."
"I wrote to Paul **, owner or founder of HubPages, but got no answer."
"Since this happened to me, I know five more people that had the same thing happened to their accounts."
"Some of the other people they did this same thing to, live in other countries, and the few hundred dollars a month they were making was saving their lives and putting their children through school."
Just a reminder, Edward's complaint was made public in 2011 (almost FOUR years ago).
It looks like HubPages has been taking advantage of writers for years.
Tell me about YOUR HubPages experience in the comments and I will share it in an upcoming update. If you have your own site / blog and have written about it, I will link to your post as well.
Oh and if there are people in your life that witnessed the turmoil you've gone through because of the Squidoo - HubPages "deal", ask them to sign the petition. (I'm sure they wouldn't want to see you relive this experience again).
Peace out,
Rose
