Honestly Jim, when this guy signed the contracts at the chamber of commerce, you should have known to have been wary.

If you had ever been to Forsyth, you'd know how dead on this is.

That's how these things work. No need to have a real case, drive a business out of business using the legal system as a weapon. No due process, no need to even go to court.

Serious reminder that corrption in America, having to pay off local officials, is just the same as it is in the third world.

I didn't believe this until working at the law firm I work at now that mainly defends businesses. It is absolutely horrible what happens to businesses, especially SMBs.

Yeah, there is no protection for ordinary people in America. The law isn't there to protect people, it is a weapon of the rich and powerful.

@travisdh1 I'm curious how you how and when "it" actually happened? I don't know you.

he's talking about the police state, I think.

@scottalanmiller Okay.

Of course you can shut off services for non-payment. The BIG caveat here is Office 365, its not the MSP's service and during your Cloud Partner training with Microsoft you have to specifically illustrate that you understand this on the tests.
Even with the CSP program where you are directly billing the customer, you can not just reset their passwords and shut them off. You can stop paying and they can login to start their own subscription.
It reads as if he shut off access by resetting their Office 365 passwords.

Not in Georgia. Your rights are not spelled out by the law.
