I think I copied your comment wrong originally, I apologize very much for having to recreate it.
Actually, there is a lot more to it than just even that scandal...
They actively screw around with open source projects, trying to make it hard for them to use their services.
There also used to be an actual website devoted to hating paypal, if my memory is correct, which it is, there is something called paypal sucks
type it into whatever search engine you use, it should show up soon.
but yeah, I finally ditched them recently, for a reason that really was just perfect to finally give me enough reason to not use it for anything ever again.
I used to donate to specific causes online, but as of a specific update, forget which, I couldn't donate $ to euros, etc...
used to be able to.
The moment they did that, I thought...
Perfect! I wanted a reason to ditch these behemoths.
Aka, they are extremely hostile to open source projects.
As a rule of thumb, though, if you aren't UK, US, Canada, you are even more likely to get issues.
Btw, when they did that censorship situation, publications referred to them in ways that make no sense.
Long story short, sides don't matter, its basically, if your business is too open source, or isn't part of UK,US,Canada, expect to be screwed with. Especially if it hits both boxes at the same time.
Sad for the paypal people, that they gave me a very giant reason to ditch them, their loss, not mine
As a final thought, I very much, wish that, America could have the same privacy policies as most Europeans, have as a default, if not better.
Btw, yes, I know its a dream that will likely take more than a few decades and for enough people to wake up, etc... I can dream though, can't I?
If it isn't broken, don't fix, unless you are a corporation, because that's the only way you can make money to the point where you can dominate the world in a megalomaniac sociopathic way that no one really wants that also heavily destroys the environment via data collection and wasting water
SMH...
If you believe Jesus is your savior, don't support any fascists, otherwise you are deceiving yourself.
I however, do believe in him. Don't let your pride blind you, lest you wish to be greatly humbled unexpectedly, as this will hurt on an agonizing scale
