A friend of mine had a bunch of problems with a home renovation -
by a supposedly reputable company - he didn't get any follow-up
work done until he spoke to the company owner and said that he
was set to tell his story - all over social media -
the company owner decided, finally, to treat it as a priority -
because his name was on all the trucks and advertising ..

Be careful how you do this. If you say, fix my roof or I'll tell my
story all over social media, it might be construed as blackmail, by
you.
You need aiui to say you're making a list, or something like that, of
social media but not make what you do contingent on his repairing it.
If he does repair it, you can always change your mind.
This is, iirc, different from threatening to sue, which is not
blackmail.


You are a silly person with silly ideas.


Right back at you.

blackmail = fix my roof or I'll publish the photos of you screwing a
sheep.

not fix my roof or I'll publish photos of the roofing job your
roofing company did.


The prior poster didn't refer to publishing photos but to telling the
story. A) you should learn to acquaint yourself with the facts and
portray them accurately. B) Go finish your law degree.
