Epik Fights PayPal

Just read that.

Apparently Epik lost Paypal. It might seem like a blow to Rob's business but I lost PP years ago and went 100% crypto. Best thing actually, I no longer was under the thumb of their monopoly and never again had a reversal.

UPDATE: I just spoke with Rob for a minute. He's very excited to get the message out about tyranny of Paypal. He's got a LOT more to the story on what happened. Maybe he'll post about it blog it.

Realistically Paypal is a very evil company. They are a Monopoly that has been the gatekeeper of payments online for a very long time. They set fees high, they screw over sellers, and they will lock your account for the slightest of violations potentially destroying a business.

Thankfully the past years we are seeing a rise in crypto currency and it is breaking their hold. I expect Paypal to be a small percentage of their size in the next 10 years as crypto replaces their services as an unnecessary middleman.

I look forward to the fight of Epik against Paypal. May his victory be swift and complete.

I also highly recommend if you have not tried Epik as your registrar that you do so asap. Fantastic service imho.

Thank you.

That's very vague. Let's be specific. Are you okay with hate speech and white supremist groups?

Am I OK with free speech? Absolutely.

Progressive scum throw words like racist, fascist, white supremacist around at anyone who disagrees with them.

I did not receive this email and I have domains there. Is this for US customers only?

They should inform all their customers.

I got it and I am not in the US.

So you're ok with free speech as it's defined in the constitution. But modifications to what's acceptable as free speech have been made over the years. No?

Are you okay with those changes?

I'm ok with about 20% of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_free_speech_exceptions.

It's should be obvious speech that affects another's constitutional rights, i.e. slander, can be limited. But even slander is a civil offence, not a crime.

Got it? Do we have to play 25 questions before you get to your point about using the wrong pronoun?

I get it. I just feel differently. Would it be so bad if the US constitution evolved?

Wrong pronoun??

The constitution doesn't evolve. It can be amended. If you had your way a list of approved / unapproved speech would have to be published weekly.

The best antidote for bad speech is more speech.

HeHe, I like @Joe Nichols he responds the same way I would.

Maybe it's me but, why are all Epik official letters so long and full of political expressions? I just don't get it.

Believe it or not, that might be the tamest blog post in recent times. Glad all have been notified. Now waiting for notification about Afternic.

Pretty simple for me, was not aware of this. Only found out when I went to renew a name today.

Only use Paypal so will be dropping or transferring my 70 plus names.
