OOPS: Paypal’s Shortlived Plan To ‘Fine’ Users For Wrongthink Could Trigger A Federal Investigation

Paypal took a serious kick in the wallet after a plan to ‘fine’ users $2500 for ‘misinformation’ was exposed and then retracted. But that isn’t the end of the story.

Customers rushed for the exits when this story went public. Can you can guess which day the news about this policy first broke?

“We have ordered most of the major Big Tech firms and payment companies to provide us with information about how are they making decisions about who they kick off their platforms,” Chopra stated. “But we also need to look into whether they believe they can be fining users for legal activity.”
Chopra said the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau would have to investigate the matter and would not act yet. However, he noted it might be “new territory” for the agency to investigate. — EpochTimes

They were assuming the right to use powers that they have no authority to weild.

Have our new Big Tech overlords already gotten so comfortable with the power they openly wielded in a coordinated effort to kneecap a sitting President that it doesn’t occur to them that there should be any limits whatsoever?

The stakes in the fight we’re called to take a stand in keep getting higher. We need to be grounded in something bigger than the political back-and-forth of today.

That’s where this book comes in. There’s a reason it went directly to #1.
