IDK, those platforms are not agencies. They are a dating service meets escrow. They not in the relationship business. If the hiring company __and__ the freelancer don't know the law - and clearly both of themt should - is that Upwork's job? To give legal advice? Sounds more like Legal.com to me.

Upwork saw an obvious red flag and covered it's arse. I think they could have done a bit better, but the Twitter rant is foolish, at best.
