Payment processors, banks and card networks should be as neutral as possible. If it's not directly involved with a crime then let it through (I'm sure there's also things like blacklisting chargebackers and poo poo). Some guy at Paypal deciding whether your case or bail is worth funding is abhorrent. Especially Paypal! Remember SA's Katrina issue?

How directly is directly?

Glenn is all about the "Free speech means we have to accept ideas we don't like, unless it's journalistic interns talking about the fascist capital rioters for some reason."

Glenn is all about the "Free speech means you have to accept ideas that you don't like, and I don't have to read any negative feedback."

No idea, you'd have to get someone decent who knows about this stuff to write guidance/a law on it! The MATCH stuff Mastercard uses seems reasonable enough, although I don't know the full details of #7 and #10. However, that only accounts for merchants?

I mean, I expect you could just leave whatever processes they have in place to detect crime and otherwise don't review individual transactions. I think something like this came up with Operation Chokepoint being shuttered, but again that was entire businesses/sectors rather than individuals.

The neutrality of companies have to have limits, and one of those limits has to be "the systems on which my business relies are under threat." You shouldn't be legally forced to provide gasoline to someone who is stating that they want to use it to burn down your house. The QAnon rioters don't want the basically unregulated free enterprise that "tech companies" like PayPal rely on, they want America to become a complete totalitarian autocracy under permanent god emperor Donald Trump with the economy rebuilt for total war with the goal of destroying everything that is not America.

His objection isn't about her. It's about himself and his nazi buddies.

How is it even possible to respond to this? I think that you're protecting your nazi buddies from Glenn Greenwald!

It's really on you to make sure that whatever lovely little post you quote from his twitter isn't immediately followed up by GG being a self-serving JAQ moron

Also if I have any nazi buddies please let me know directly

Is the editorial staff of the Intercept the PC gone mad social justice warriors cancel culture woke brigade?


GG cannot fail he can only be failed

But remember it's important to give voice to people who disagree with you, as long as the people disagreeing with you agree with Glenn Greenwald!
