Sneaky landlord enters residence without tenant's approval and steals some items, demands another month's rent after tenants accuse him: ‘What are our rights?’

Just like landlords, tenants have rights. When a conniving landlord decides that they are above the law and impede on your rights as a tenant, there landlord can't expect you to keep quiet.

When something seems fishy, it likely is. Always trust your intuition, but even more so, trust the evidence you have and do something with it. The more power that landlords have, the more they're willing to do whatever it takes to pull a fast one on you and every other tenant they have in the future.

The tenant in this story is moving out of their unit and it is their last month paying rent. They noticed their cleaning supplies were gone from their apartment, in addition to two set of blinds and a shelf they had installed in their closet for storage purposes. They first thought their neighbor might've taken their belongings, but they noticed their landlord posted an advertisement of their unit and they had never approved of him coming in and taking photos to post on apartment-seeking websites. When they confront him, instead of fessing up, he demands they pay another month's rent. Scroll to read.

Ion concentration polarization causes a nearly pore-length-independent conductance of nanopores

Faraday Discuss., 2024, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D4FD00148F, Paper
DaVante Cain, Ethan Cao, Ivan Vlassiouk, Tilman E. Schäffer, Zuzanna S. Siwy
The conductance and selectivity of low-aspect-ratio nanopores are almost independent of the length due to polarization effects controlled by the geometric and electrochemical properties of the whole (pore + reservoir) system.
