IF YOU POST SOMETHING ON SOCIAL MEDIA THAT’S FLAGGED AS ‘MISINFORMATION’ THEN YOUR POST IS TAKEN DOWN AND SOMETIMES YOU LOSE YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNT.
BUT WHAT IF YOUR BANK ACCOUNT WERE TO BECOME INVOLVED?
WHERE A COMPANY COULD FINE YOU THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IF THEY THINK YOU’VE SPREAD MISINFORMATION?
THAT **ALMOST HAPPENED.
PAYPAL HAS OFFERED AN APOLOGY…
AFTER A NEWLY PUBLISHED POLICY SAID USERS WOULD BE FINED 25 HUNDRED DOLLARS OVER MISINFORMATION.
THEY QUICKLY BACKTRACKED.
TAKING THE FINE PRINT **OUT OF THEIR POLICY AGREEMENT.
SO YOU CAN’T BE FINED OVER MISINFORMATION.
THAT WAS AN APPARENT PRINTING MISTAKE.
BUT STILL IN THE POLICY AGREEMENT…ARE FINES FOR PROMOTING WHAT PAYPAL WOULD CONSIDER HATE SPEECH OR DISCRIMINATION.
EARLIER THIS YEAR…GOFUNDME DIVERTED MILLIONS OF DOLLARS FROM A TRUCKERS RALLY FUND FOR WHAT IT CALLED ‘PROMOTING VIOLENCE.’
AND WITH MIDTERMS LESS THAN A MONTH FROM NOW…CONSERVATIVES SPECIFICALLY…ARE CALLING OUT BIG TECH FOR WHAT THEY CALL ANOTHER OVERSTEP.
