Is pay-pal entering the role of speech police ?

Removed payment method’s and closed my account. Theft, isn’t a legitimate policy change

So some woke employees at Paypal get to decide what misinformation is? Sounds like a good idea…

Looks like Paypal is retracting due to the backlash. Still not official.

Their lawyers called and told them to look at their stock price. Lol.

They were forced to backtrack in the UK .

Saying no to PayPal is a simple process - just a couple of clicks/taps and it's done.

Here is the retraction and excuse .

I’ve really stopped selling on the exchange because of PP. This is more than likely the nail in the coffin for it and Venmo. I guess moving forward it’s time to start using Money Orders

This is very hard to digest. A financial company in the USA decides to censor what customers say in their transactions using it's services?

I've been over PayPal's crap for a while, and took that same course. I've found no compelling reason to reverse my actions.

It is called these days going " woke "

The people signing up (and getting hired) for community standards monitoring at any of these tech companies tend to fit a particular profile. That’s just the way it is.

Be aware that Venmo is also owned by Paypal

I use Zelle for family members. Honestly I can’t see myself using it for transactions. Nor am I really interested in using Apple Pay. But who knows what the future holds.

I wouldn't. Its got significant security flaws. Maybe look into cash app instead.

I heard on the Fox news this morning that PP is saying that that policy was not approved by PP and they have removed it. I guess we'll see if someone gets fired because of it.
When I first heard about it I could almost hear lawyers rubbing their hands together and getting ready for the lawsuits that surely would come. PP is not a law enforcement agency.
