So this sets a really bad prescient. PayPal is famous for de-platforming for good, bad and unknown reasons, that is common knowledge. They banned InfoWarsStore.com, which hosts no InfoWars context whatsoever and only sells merchandise. The ban was for "hate speech" on the separate but related InfoWars site. The actual vendor site violated no TOS, but they just didn't like Alex Jones anymore so they looked for a reason to throw him under the bus. It's despicable.
Also, to everyone out there surprised by this, the Alt-Right has been having this happen to them non-stop for the last 2 years straight and were warning everyone this was coming. Very few heeded the warning. Prepare for far far worse.
