RE: Shopify Websites Are Down - If You Have a Shopify Store Check it Right Now
Just to add some FUD to your article it could be connected to facebooks recent problem. When you profit using a platform like that they are likely to want a cut. Also with facebook marketplace being highly pushed especially on the mobile app where it has it own tab they might try to phase it out.
[Copied from the Shopify Wiki page]
In 2017, the #DeleteShopify hashtag campaign called for a boycott of Shopify for allowing Breitbart News to host a shop on its platform.[48][49][50] Shopify's CEO, Tobias Lütke, responded to the criticism,[51] saying "refusing to do business with the site would constitute a violation of free speech"
That's why you shouldn't Succ the Zucc XD!
I think Shopify made the right call. I don't think it's SHopify's place to decide who should be able to sell what. If someone wants setup a site they should be allowed to. That sets a dangerous precedent to pick and choose who you agree with and who you don't, who can sell and who can't. Let the market decide if they want to support someoen. If someone doesn't like Breitbart don't buy stuff from them.
My exact opinion :)
