No only have I been threatened, doxxed, exposed, blackmailed and extorted during my time a a SP... I have had people, (both clients and non-clients), attempt to infiltrate my private life by going to extreme lengths to find out my true identity... They then try to cause all kinds of trouble for me in my private life... doxxing me to people in my life such as my unknowing family, full-time employer, landlord etc. irreparably and catastrophically jeopardizing my home, my career, relationships, etc. All this because I decline their custom, or will not lower my rate, or refuse to provide a particular service. One man in particular, tried to extort money from me through blackmail... He threatened to inform my family of the fact that I do this work as a part time SP in secret. I refused to pay up to his monetary ransom demands. He categorically almost destroyed my life completely by launching a horrifyingly malicious defamatory smear campaign against me through a strategic, comprehensive email offensive... contacting important and influential people in my private life causing disastrous repercussions that still affect me to this day, 6 years later. The fact that anyone decides to engage in work as an SP is entirely their own business, and no one else's. The reason that they choose to do so, is also their own business. As long as no one is being trafficked or harmed, it is no one else's concern, except that of the SP themselves. They do not deserve to be shamed, abused, or treated differently in any other way. SPs are professionals who work hard for their income. They deserve to be treated with respect and dignity. SP's are not slaves. SPs are not bought or owned. We do not have to "obey" or "comply" with every quirk or fancy a client might demand of us. We are human beings and therefore are entitled to human rights and respect. Something that is lost on so many people who seek to employ us.
