I am sort of assuming this is related to this article? https://www.businessinsider.com/pittsburgh-synagogue-shooting-gab-2018-10?utm_source=reddit.com https://www.businessinsider.com/pittsburgh-synagogue-shootin... Is Twitter, who also gave him a forum and declined to censor or punish him for threatening tweets, being similarly affected?

Twitter doesn't use PayPal to process payments, does it?

  I assume not, but I figure someone does payment processing for them that an upset crowd could apply pressure to? I guess I was generally curious if people thought there'd be any sort of similar repercussion(s) toward Twitter though. I finally got off Twitter a couple months ago and can still imagine a likely "outrage bubble" yesterday about their handling of that account, but with little actual impactful change in user usage of the service, etc. (In fact, if anything, "major" events like this likely drive a lot of traffic, even if there's criticisms.) (Please note, I'm explicitly not commenting on whether or not I think the criticism/handling/etc is appropriate or justified.)

  I'd assume they'd use square.
