“In the wake of Kyle Rittenhouse’s full acquittal, GoFundMe explained why it removed online fundraisers for the teen’s legal fees last year.

“GoFundMe’s Terms of Service prohibit raising money for the legal defense of an alleged violent crime,” according to a statement posted to Medium Friday.

The statement went on to say that once charges of violent crime were brought against Rittenhouse in 2020, the company removed any active fundraisers that were started for his legal defense in compliance with their Terms of Service.

If someone with those charges were to be acquitted, “a fundraiser started subsequently for their legal defense and other expenses would not violate this policy,” GoFundMe wrote.”

I think GiveSendGo is the alternative. Anyone using GoFundMe is nuts.
