Hello everyone,

It's interesting how we've never had any issues with either of our payment processors for over two years now, but all of a sudden when Gab.com is the only platform on the internet to host Alex Jones and defend free expression for all people, we become the target.

In the last two weeks both of our payment processors have threatened to or have frozen our service. This is why we are crowdfunding from You, The People, to build our own free speech-friendly infrastructure. Learn how to become a Gab shareholder here: https://www.startengine.com/freespeech

If you are upgrading to GabPro it’s important that you do so from our shop for the time being: https://shop.gab.com/products/gab-pro-subscription

Paypal did not terminate our service--yet. They threatened to a few weeks ago over a meme from 2012 called "Navy Seal Copypasta." They took the meme literally like idiots who know nothing at all about basic internet culture. We refused to censor the meme because the context and intent were very clear. We have not heard back since we told them this 11 days ago and our account is still active as of now.

Stripe, our other payment processor, is demanding quote:

"Modification of your terms of service to indicate that adult or illegal content cannot be streamed through GabTV or otherwise distributed through the Gab service.
The implementation of reasonable controls to ensure that no adult or illegal content is being streamed through GabTV or otherwise available on the Gab service."

Both of these make no sense because we already do not allow any illegal content and take action against it. Further, any adult content must be marked as NSFW (Not Safe For Work) per our user guidelines, which is a similar feature that Reddit and others have for adult content on their site. Stripe has no problem working with Facebook, Pinterest, and Squarespace, all of which certainly have adult content if you go looking for it.
```

or otherwise distributed through the gab service

2018-10-04 01:49:58 UTC  

Stripe is opposed to adult content?

2018-10-04 01:49:59 UTC  

wtf?

2018-10-04 01:50:05 UTC  

nope

2018-10-04 01:50:16 UTC  

What is it with payment processors being ninnies about everything, even perfectly legal things?

2018-10-04 01:50:22 UTC  

@Beemann Make the Plague Great Again

2018-10-04 01:50:23 UTC  

they say they want them to mark it as NSFW (which they do)

2018-10-04 01:50:39 UTC  

Is it because people disown transactions or claim they're fraudulent more often when they are in that category?

2018-10-04 01:50:56 UTC  

doubt it

2018-10-04 01:50:58 UTC  

i.e. when people buy pornography they are more likely to pretend they didn't intend to, when pressed on it.

2018-10-04 01:51:04 UTC  

lol

2018-10-04 01:51:19 UTC  

oh I wish it was a joke
