TER General Board

Restrictions Yet Again?confused_smile
1angelinajones See my TER Reviews 953 reads

Today I proceed to post my usual weekly "update" to a respected "Ad Board Site".
0n my Profile in red letters is a notice:
"Effective immediately, all USA Profiles will be deleted"    

 
I've done a quick search and cannot seem to find any new "Sosta/Festa" rules being  
implemented as was done a couple years ago.

Those previous laws subsequently eliminated Provider Profiles/Ads, and all of said  
accumulated posted "Reviews".....  Some of the deleted Sites, simply never returned,
and all was lost.
Disappointing to say the least!

 
Has anyone else come across this and does anyone have the "411" on this dilemma?

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Thank you Sir or Madam,
I wasn't referring to TER, however another site which I'm not sure
I'm allowed here on TER to mention said board.

It might not be anything "new" from outside (LE) pressure. It might be due to something totally "old" and internal to the company itself. Maybe there was a change in ownership or management (like Musk and twitter) and somebody thought, "Let's tighten this up to avoid and possible problems before they happen." (And if it's like Musk and twitter, you know what THAT means: makes things worse for their business.)
.
Maybe you can post to the Legal Board abd see if anybody there knows what's up or might be up.

Good thought thank you!  I'll post to the "Legal Board  
to inquire.
Getting ahead of the possible eventual shut-down, is a
plausible explanation.

Another thought. You didn't mention the specific ad board site, but did you search other ads on the same site? Are the ads "normal" or are they also covered with the red banner warning?  
.
Is there a chance that the website has been hacked? ... somebody hijacking their site and expecting to be paid a ransom? ... I'd suggest trying to contact the website Admin, but if the hackers hacked the Admin account, that won't work.  
.
Do you know any other Providers who use that site?

Indeed other USA ads on said site have a "Deactivated" banner listed on their
profile.  
I queried the site's admin. however haven't heard back yet.
Hacking is also a possibility as you discussed, thank you!
