    WTF is wrong with our regulators? https://www.pcmag.com/news/the-feds-are-letting-debt-collectors-slide-into-peoples-dms [www pcmag com]

    #Debt_collectors (honest and upright people that they are) now allowed to contact people via DMs on #socnets.

    Imagine turning those scumbags loose to harass people on yet another channel.

      I would like to assume that they could be blocked...

      and that they wouldn't contact you friends...

      and that they would only do this during normal work hours...

      Like they follow rules unless they get caught.

      All the more reason not to use your real info on socnet's.
