Just reported your comment to PayPal's anti evil operations. Looks like next month's rent money is gonna be reallocated to a charity group that specializes in providing access to hormone therapy for disadvanged youth.

Thanks for being such a Karen. You're exactly the kind of person that PayPal's "anti evil operations" should be going after. Maybe next month's rent money should be reallocated to a charity that specializes in providing access to mental health services for people like you.

Hmmm.
What a profoundly odd decision. This seems like it's clearly done for reasons other than profit, and isn't that actually illegal?

Yeah the courts don't usually let people enforce a contract that says "I reserve the right to take some or all of the money in your account whenever you do something vague that I don't like". You can't just write whatever the frick you want in your terms and conditions.
"Paypal reserves the right to take possession of your house, your car, and your dog if you post wrong think on the internet while using the service."

Ya but fiduciary duty to the shareholders is more what I'm thinking. Like if you're a corporation you can't just do shit because you think it'll be better for society or whatever, you have to increase profit for the shareholders or you're breaching fiduciary duty and they can sue you. I can't see an angle where this patently unreasonable policy that's already pissing people off increases profit for the shareholders. It seems designed solely to advance political or ideological aims.

I just had to fill out a "vendor survey" for one of my bigger clients. They're a multi billion dollar company and I'm literally no one to them, but since I'm on their vendor list they kept sending me the survey with more and more urgent language and exclamation points on the emails and all that because I wasn't filling it out.
I start filling this fricking thing out and it's all standard at the beginning. "Does the business qualify as a small business under federal blah blah"? "Is the business a Minority Owned Business"? The usual. Then the other usual ones - "Does the business maintain written policies for the protection of sensitive personal information"? We don't, but if someone asked to see it I guess I'd just send them some boilerplate off google or whatever.
Then "Does the business maintain written policies for diversity, equity, and inclusion?" and "Does the business maintain written policies to protect against discrimination?" Again, I don't but I also don't discriminate, so that's fine, I just said yes.
Then finally I started marking all the rest of their questions no because they kept getting dumber. Like asking me if I have a written policy for sourcing tin, tungsten, gold, and diamonds from conflict free sources, and whether I have a policy for offsetting carbon emissions, and for pursuing environmental and social causes as part of my corporate mission. I just checked no on all of them and didn't elaborate, like motherlover I write software what the frick are you talking about?
This is the direction some "people" think the future of "fiduciary responsibility" is going to go, that instead of maximizing profits, you're going to fulfill your duty by scoring brownie points with everyone for all your awesome work in equity and environmentalism, and companies are already jumping the gun assuming the laws will change at some point. But while the dumb company I'm working for is just going to put my answers in a database and not do anything with it until AFTER the laws change (which they probably never will) Paypal is going to change everything right now and get sued by everyone, apparently.

I think it is just about what you can prove a "reasonable" person would be able to understand and have agency to consider. If u target corps or even just corp-like persons, I doubt they could use r-sluration as a defense, as a normal person does in case of unenforcable.

yeah if they did that I'd file a chargeback and lose my account. lol I've had my paypal since the 90s, but I'll drop their butt if they tried to do that. They can send me to collections and I'll tell them to kiss my butt.

They won't charge it to anyone's card on file, because everyone would charge it back. They'll only do it to ecommerce people who hold a balance in their paypal account for buying and selling.

Well that's just great. I'm glad they're discriminating against people who actually use paypal for its intended purpose. I'm sure that'll really help their business.

I think it was easier to type one password to pay for something instead of a massive load of numbers from a credit card.

I just closed mine over it too. They've been doing something shady at least once a week lately, I don't trust them with any of my information anymore.
Last time I tried to link a bank account to them, they tried to get me to sign in through plaid, which is a service that asks you to give them the user ID and password to your bank account in order to verify your info, with their promise that they won't use it for anything nefarious later. Imagine being stupid enough to actually do that. When plaid inevitably gets hacked or worse just straight up sells their database to someone, a lot of people are going to have their life savings stolen, and they'll find out the hard way that there's no way for their bank to reverse the transaction, since "they" logged into "their own" account and transferred the money out.

That isn't how Plaid works, but I'll allow this (((misinformation))) since Plaid is yet another fintech company scraping your transaction data for our Silicon Valley overlords.

I'd never heard of it when I was redirected from Paypal, and they definitely asked me for my bank credentials.

Maybe but most people just ended up using their browser or a password manager to hold their PayPal number in the first place. Might as well use your credit card no?

I'd rather let PayPal be the front end that deals with the website, instead of giving those r-slurs at the website my CC info.
Of course, I assume PayPal doesn't simply forward my CC info to the other party.

The only thing I've used it for lately is buying stuff from foreign countries. You usually will have a lot of trouble doing that with a debit card. Even if you call your bank and tell them you're about to do it, visa or mastercard or whoever actually processes your transactions will almost certainly flag it as fraud anyway.

I think Paypal is asking for people to keep a zero balance in their accounts. I don't think that's good for Paypal. Acting like a bank has allowed them to have a lot of people's cash on hand. If everyone starts to think Paypal is just going to steal their money, they'll transfer everything out of their account daily. Why wouldn't you at this point?

The move to Santa Barbara is the endgame, the ultimate climax of everything. I saw it as a new chance that was given to me to finally have the things I want in life: love, s*x, friends, fun, acceptance, a sense of belonging. But I could never forgive the world for denying me such things in the past. I was already turning twenty soon. I had already lost many years of my life. I deserve better than that. I am an intelligent gentleman, and I deserve the love of girls more than the other obnoxious boys of my age, and yet they get girls and I don't. That is a crime that can never be forgotten, nor can it be forgiven. I always wanted to exact my revenge on humanity for forcing me to live such a life, but I've also always had the hope that if I can do things in life to make up for all my suffering, then that in itself would be a form of peaceful revenge.
In truth, the move Santa Barbara was actually a chance that I was giving to the world, not the other way around! I was giving the world one last chance to give me the life that I know I'm entitled to, the life that other boys are able to live with ease. If I still have to suffer the same rejection and injustice even after I move to Santa Barbara, then that will be the last straw. I will have my vengeance.
