I also see the need for a company to be able to close an account for truly fraudulent activity and not disclose how they caught the misconduct.
I'm in no way implying that such activity happened in this case, just that the policy makes sense.
An appeal process should be in place though.
- Cthulhu_ 10y agoThey don't need to disclose how they caught it, just what said misconduct was - going "yeah we're closing your account due to misconduct" is like fining someone for no reason. It'd be a violation of human rights if that happened, and in this particular case, it's potentially ruining someone financially.
- maccard 10y agoIt's not really - it's more akin to closing someone's bank account and saying "we're closing your account for misconduct" which does happen.
- andrei_says_ 10y agoNot disclosing the details for the reason could prevent a malicious actor to learn and improve their strategies.
- waterphone 10y agoExcept false positives always happen, and when you have such a policy, innocent people are caught in the middle and face an accusation of vaguely defined misconduct with no details to use to try and appeal the incorrect accusation, because they don't even know what they're being accused of.
