Nuked Paypal has terminated the account of domain registrar and web hosting company Epik for violating its’risk controls’. The account has been terminated by PayPal, prompting angry letters and blog posts from Epik claiming conservative bias was to blame.
Seattle-Based Epik is perhaps best known for its support of right-wing social media site gab. The site was banned by its hosting company, domain registrar, and PayPal in 2018 after it was discovered that the alleged shooter at a Pittsburgh synagogue had written anti-Semitic tirades on gab.
According to Mashable, Epik did not take proper legal steps to run the digital currency. It can be used to buy Epik products or converted into us dollars.
Epik senior vice president for strategy and communications Robert Davis said PayPal’s actions amounted to’abuse of power and overreach by a de facto monopoly’.
Paypal has terminated our payment services just two weeks before a presidential election, says Davis. The post echoes a common complaint about online anti-conservative bias.
Epik did not immediately respond to a request for comment Sunday. Epik did n’t immediately reply to a requests for comment.
In a six-page letter to PayPal CEO Dan Schulman, Davis writes that Epik’has zero tolerance toward racism, believes itself to be a force for good in the fight against inequality’.
