I recently had a non-paying web hosting customer. 3 Months without payment for multiple sites. Finally after numerous warnings I replaced her sites with a 'this account has been suspended' notice.
Received payment that day.
Kill switches work wonders.
- shawabawa3 14y agoThat's not exactly a kill switch. If you're hosting the web site then of course you can deactivate it if they don't pay. I think he was talking about delivering a finished software product to be run on their hardware, but that has a backdoor that allows you to access and deactivate it remotely.
- eshvk 14y agoI am curious how this would work legally. Once you have delivered the product, is killing it remotely equivalent to maliciously breaking in and destroying property?
- Avenger42 14y agoWhy didn't you do this after the first month of non-payment? It just seems like three months is too much leeway to me.
