Most of the other brokerages (Schwab, Etrade, and TD Ameritrade, but NOT Fidelity and Vanguard according to the reports I am getting) are participating. According to the rumor on Reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/ClassActionRobinHood/comments/l723kf/robinhood_insider_information/ https://www.reddit.com/r/ClassActionRobinHood/comments/l723k... the call came from the White House.

I'm able to purchase these securities on ETrade just fine. Edit: Just called E*TRADE. They now don't allow GME nor AMC trades unless you're closing your position.

I wouldn’t give that rumour any serious thought considering there’s literally nothing backing it up and it mostly just feeds what people already want to believe. People are pointing out in the comments that some of the details don’t line up, like him being based in the wrong city and him overhearing conversations while WFH.

  For real, despite three years of QAnon people are still failing miserably to apply any incredulity about whatever they read on the internet. That it affirms their beliefs is all that matters, never mind its veracity.

It looks like I can still buy with my Schwab account?

In the words of Joe Biden, that rumor is pure malarky. I saw Vladimir on CNBC this morning in what looked to be his home. Unless the "low-level computer science" person was in the founders home, it seems very unlikely he "overheard" a convo with the White House. It seems like a dog whistle to me.

Schwab made GME non-marginable on 1/13. You can buy GME with your own settled cash on Schwab just fine. It has been tested.

  Confirmed by the person who originally reported about Schwab to me.

The crazy rumors aside, at least this whole mess has clarified for me which brokerages to give my business to and which ones to boycott. It is the free market afterall, and people will be choosing with their $$$ which ones to support and which ones to boycott. The 1 star rating, while a bit extreme, also is part of the same idea. You also kinda had it coming when you called yourself "robin hood" and then immediately bent over the moment the slightest challenge appeared.
