Brave is a cheap business, BAT project warning signals and centralized control

Brave is so cheap they spent money and time and resources developing a "Suspended Bat" feature in their creators Dashboard. This is the money I have earned by running a BAT verified website waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack in 2018. I have been fighting again and again and again to get my account and my BAT out.I've spent money on hosting and developing a website that brought me these funds. First they suspended my account without a reason (automatic security check). After appealing 5 times over the course of two years my account was finally released.Come the moment to withdraw my BAT, I was time-gated by having to go through Uphold. To become a verified member on Uphold I had to order a new ID card, because they wouldn't verify me there either ( clever partnership ). But I did, I got verified and I sneaked past the system. My BAT was now ready to get withdrawn ----------- well not yet, I had to wait 1 month for the next cycle of payout to come. I really don't understand this system btw. So I gave it another 2-3 months.BUT I gave them too much time, in this time the developers have made a new feature on their Brave creator's dashboard, signaling that the money I've earned in 2018 is "suspended", they even claim that Brave owns my BAT (a cryptocurrency, lol), so now I have to appeal again, providing the same old references I had to provide the first 5 times.And I'm getting tired of this shit, instead of fighting to spread the usage and philosophy of BAT, I need to fight for something I've worked hard for and earned. At this point I am in a major deficit in terms of money and time spent proportionately to the reward that I didn't get at all.And it goes against the whole ethos of this project. I want to burn this place down now, because not only has my trust been breached, I feel like a fool for supporting these retards for so long and advocating their use. I've written several medium articles about them among many other things, but I was wrong,The first warning signal is that the ERC20 token on the decentralized blockchain platform IS NOT IN YOUR WALLET. IT'S IN THEIRS. It's exactly, like running a centralized database which only one entity (brave) controls. That's enough, isn't it?The company of developers with no business education and experience should not run a business in the first place. You can't run a business without paying out your users, whatever it is you think you're doing, it's not right and because it's no way to run a business, there will be no future for you either.So the next step will have to be to delete my brave browser and start a campaign to spread awareness on how this business is run, because it's important. We all think we're in some decentralized project, but it's all a single point of control with the funds they raised in a guise of their white paper, decentralization and ICO. If anyone asks what they've done is illegal today and they hold no responsibility, lucky, but they're officially scammers.
