This policy has been in place since at least September 2021. As if you didn’t need yet another reason to drop PayPal like a bad habit...
Sounds like an excuse to charge a premium if someone wants to pay you with PayPal.
Just make it part of the terms they agree to if they do business with you.
so PayPal spies on it’s users ?
Is paypal still an accepted means of supporting FR?
It seemed so 2 weeks ago.
Paypal has no authority to fine. It is a payment processor, not the court.
This action of theirs, I believe, is to close down businesses and organizations that they don’t approve of, such as MAGA hat stores, The Daily Wire, Free Republic.
We need a PayPal alternative that is accepted nearly everywhere that paypal,is accepted. Wish Elon or someone could start such business. Paypal has sucked for a long time now- nothing but another flaming liberal power drunk site.
I left Paypal ages ago now.
Go Woke, go broke.
Venmo is so ubiquitous in my circle I asked in the last week or so what ever happened to PayPal?
Do these people understand what kind of dystopia they’re building?
This is weird. What does it even mean? They aren’t Facebook, or YT with people making comments to censor.
It is a purchasing service which should be more anonymous than a credit card.
Guess that is that. No more PayPal purchases. Too bad, because it was an easy route to use for donations to charities.
This is what FASCISM looks like. Private business doing what our Constitution prohibit the government from doing.
Fortunately capitalism will solve this problem as people who do not like the new terms of service can find another way to do what ever they do with pay pal. They have options.
If enough people or businesses leave pay pal they will either change or go out of business.
Being WOKE is not a good business strategy.
Does the fine apply to those showing intolerance to pro-lifers? or Trump supporters? (Didn’t think so.)
That’s it for them
This would be a slam dunk lawsuit. Companies cannot make and enforce penalties.
They can kick you off their service, but they cannot fine you.
I think all the Nigerian spammers wanting to fix the issue with my PayPal account by sharing my information with them should go into business and start a legit competing company. It’s always “fun” when I get these emails as I don’t use PayPal.
Just closed my account that I’ve had for 20+ years.
We all know it’s to shut down sensible voices of the non-woke. Clever how the government gets around that annoying 4th amendment. The government? Yes. The government is fully aware that Paypal and others are violating the 4th amendment, and they fully accept it, allow it, and support it. Therefore the government is doing it, by proxy.
By proxy or not, it is still violating the law. (The government).
So a T-shirt shop that has satiric content or content that might be politically incorrect (Trump won 2020) that is probably covered by the First Amendment can have their money scavenged from their acccount without any legal basis such as a court order. How can this be legal?
