What is the new policy being imposed on Nov 3rd? If I don’t maintain any balance but only use it for purchases, there shouldn’t be any money to steal from me, right?

Free speech?  What's all this talk about "free speech".  Yes, we have the right to speak freely....but no one has the right to not be offended.

On Nov. 3rd Paypal is changing their policy so they can debit/fine your account $2500 if they deem something you've said or done is "hateful". I will be deleting my Paypal account this month before the policy rolls out, will anyone else? Completely disgusting behavior from Paypal, I hope they lose most of their customer base, they deserve to lose everything for such overreaching policy. On an app where financial liberty is the entire use case they want to step all over it.

I definitely will. If this information is true, they have violated the rules of my use.

It's true, but they are backtracking on it because of the outcry and people deleting their accounts.  Nevertheless, it shines a bright light on what the company TRULY is and it's nothing most good people want to be associated with regardless.

Yeah, PayPal claims it was a mistake but I know they're lying. I'm still closing this account.

Even Elon Musk and Forbes is saying to dump PayPal over their woke agenda.  I mean, fining people thousands for free thought isn't exactly how we work in the USA.  Who does PayPal think they are to punish people for the way they think?  Who made PayPal God? Actually charging member for personal beliefs that don't align with their political ideology.  Have they learned nothing from the long list of woke business failures?   Besides, who wants to be associated with what is now one of the most hated companies on earth?  

While PayPal has backtracked on their "think how we order you to, or we will fine you thousands" policy, someone there thought is was a good idea.  While they said it was a mistake, In fact they thought it such a good idea that PayPal proudly announced their new gestapo policy, undoubtedly with an evil grin and laugh.  But this is obviously how PayPal views members.   Regardless, the smart resolution is the same...DUMP THEM!  DUMP THEIR STOCK!
