Looks up FSU on Wikipedia

> After Cambridge University launched an online portal for students to anonymously report microaggressions, the Free Speech Union threatened legal action. The portal was ultimately removed.[11]

I guess they consider some kinds of speech more free than others.

I found this article less than persuasive as it was clearly written to arouse rather than inform or supply context.

Without commenting on the merits or lack thereof in this case, I think it would be useful to give some more information about the FSU: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Speech_Union

The FSU/Daily Sceptic/Toby Young is conspiracy theoristic, grifting, scam.

He knows that he broke the T&Cs - learning to cry for fun and profit.

The sad thing is that TY’s dad coined the term “meritocracy” and he’s the only reason why anyone pays any attention to Toby.

Why would anyone remotely political trust PayPal after the 2010 Wikileaks closure?

Some of these cases seem like plain censorship. Other cases seem like something equivalent to the 10% rejection policy many US American insurance companies have, where they will flat out reject valid insurance claims just to raise the profit margins.

Personally I would never dare putting anything but spare change in the hands of Paypal or other US American payment providers.

PayPal has been blocking people, businesses, and organisations due to real or perceived ideological wrongthink for years. This is why more businesses are waking up and changing to Asian payment processors.

Is there a right to compel businesses to provide a service to you?

Paypal has been doing this crap for at least 15 years now. Anyone still using them at this point has it coming.

All while HN consistently hates on BTC.
