Almost 100% positive upwork somehow magically unsuspends his account after seeing this thread. When will these companies ever learn that it’s not okay to misbehave and quietly “fix” things when publicity gets bad?

Generally only when it becomes economically or legally impossible to continue doing so.
So never ?
You're correct, they did that an hour ago.
That's absolutely unbelievable! It looks like the times of civilized conversations are over, and public shaming is the only strategy that works for companies like these... Facebook, Google, you name it - they don't care about you, but once your submission on HN gathers enough traction, your problem magically disappears. That's ridiculous.
