Isn't it a ridiculous joke that yelp is threatening "a clear violation of the platform’s Terms of Service", when it seems he is no longer a user of the service?

By his own admission, he is no longer paying yelp for any service so there is no contractual agreement between the two entities right? A punishment where they delist the business from their site is giving him and other businesses exactly what they want? So.....?

From a conceptual level, an unrelated entity lists the details of you/your business on their own accord and then threatens you with "terms of service violation" when you do something or share information it doesn't like? Seems insane.
