This was posted on the site on the 31st of December 2014. The reason given was that, apparently, there was way too much "manipulation and fraudulent activity".
Justice, Fairness
Is that right? Is that fair? Sure, there are cheaters, spammers, plagiarists, manipulators, etc on Bubblews, but, at the same time, there are also honest and good people there who did nothing wrong and who followed all the rules and terms to the best of their abilities.Why should they be punished for something they didn’t do? Why should they be lumped or included amongst all the bad guys?
Sirius Black
Sirius Black is a character from the Harry Potter series of books by J.K. Rowling. He was first introduced in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, book 3. He lived a very sad and tragic life.He was accused of betraying his best friend (James Potter), killing a bunch of people (including Peter Pettigrew, another friend), and being the right-hand man of Dark Lord Voldemort (the main villain of the series).
He was then sent to Azkaban prison without a trial because everyone believed he was guilty. They didn’t listen to his side of the story. They just threw him into prison, but the truth was that Sirius Black was actually innocent.
Bubblews Members and Sirius Black – Similarities
Just like what happened to Sirius Black, members of the Bubblews site are being accused of manipulating the system and engaging in fraudulent activity.They are being punished by not getting paid and/or getting a reduced payment without being given the chance to defend themselves and show that they are not one of the spammers and scammers and plagiarists.
Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? Is it right to generalize and stereotype people like that? Why is everyone considered bad and evil when there are actually people who are good and who did nothing wrong?
Sirius Black may be a fictional character, but what happened to him can happen in real life. It’s happening now, isn’t it? You see entire groups of people or even entire countries being blamed for so many things even if a lot of them are actually innocent.
But these people are silenced and oppressed, and they aren’t allowed to speak freely and voice their opinions and defend themselves (this may or may not be referring to more than just the site-that-shall-not-be-named a.k.a Bubblews).
