If the current political decisions turn out to render many businesses bad for their customers, I think this is going to be a serious problem. Just saying.

You and everyone else, has every right to be angry with any organisation, for any reason.

But, if the reason is entirely out of that organisations control, and would mean they would be breaking certain laws and/or liable to lose a substantial amount of business, as a result.

That it may not be such, a good idea, blaming that organisation.

E.g. You eat a really nice meal, outside, on the restaurants tables.  It then pours with rain, a huge wind blows, a storm brews, and you have a terrible time.
It wouldn't necessarily be fair or nice, to blame the restaurant for the terrible weather.

But, you would be within your rights, to do so (blame them for the weather).

This assumes there is some law (that no-one can reference) which obliges the retailer to say nothing. Until that is proven it is entirely reasonable to blame the lack of communication from the retailer.... on the choices the retailer made.

You are free and welcome to do such things, if you desire.

But what happened to innocent until proven guilty?

Many things, don't or can't be absolutely 100% defined and proved.  So, if you only ever make decisions based on insisting on absolute 100% exact information.  It may be found, to hinder some activities.

Such as buying stuff from a retailer, who (perhaps?) has done absolutely nothing wrong at all.

There may or may not be a law that explicitly states that. But if the the law is not crystal clear, the lawyers will err on the side of caution.

When I see a flag on a ticket, there is a text in red warning me to stop all work and communication on the ticket until the flag is cleared. I can't tell you why there is a delay in my responses. And it sucks and does not feel good, but there is nothing low level workers can do.

You can blame organization, for sure, but I'm not sure if it will achieve anything. Hopefully that all gets clarified and resolved sooner rather than later.

And individual pressure is also not likely to do anything. Bad review on a forum is not great, but a government investigation is so much worse.

That would be your inversion of the presumption of innocence.

Bad retailer is a bad retailer for not communicating delays/issues with an order.

If people want to offload that bad publicity/feedback by claiming the retailer is obliged to take that action, then it's on them to show the obligation. Not me to show the absence of an obligation (which is impractical). But well done trying to sound like you can form a functional argument, and failing right on your own claim.

Great thing about laws is they are explicitly required to be made public.
