PayPal reverses course on fining people for spreading misinformation

The people have spoken!

PayPal attempted to fine people for spreading misinformation, and then the people stood up...

They started deleting the app and moving their money off of the platform in mass.

What happened next?!

PayPal backpedaled on the announcement and removed the part about fining people for spreading "misinformation" (whatever that is anyways).

Anytime a company or government tries to infringe on your rights you need to stand up and voice your opinion with your words and your feet.

That's exactly what happened here.

Together, the people are enormously powerful.

Bitcoin is our next hill to take a stand on!

Upvoted! Thank you for supporting witness @jswit.

I have a new policy of fining companies for stupidity. Guess I better put that bill for $1,000,000 in the mail to PayPal...

Yea they were going to go into people's accounts and directly remove $2500... crazy stuff.

A lot of these employees at these companies are complete clowns. PayPig has always been an issue but it is tough to get around a company like that especially when using eBay.
