I don't trust them. Just last week, GoFundMe rugged a bunch of funds sent for a legitimate political protest. They can snap their fingers and freeze your funds and hold it indefinitely, without a warrant.
I admit that the Approval UX for wallets and tokens needs to be improved. Unlimited spend approvals should always be flagged in the UX. And approvals should be atomic (single transaction only, with a clearly listed cap, by default). There are some EIP proposals addressing this, but they will be a ways off from standardization.

- matkoniecz 5y agoNote that GoFundMe decision to refund is a change from its previous one that happened only after outcry.
- chrisco255 5y agoA private company intervened in the sending of money between private individuals. You can arbitrate that all you want, but it doesn't change the fact that they shouldn't have that power in the first place. GoFundMe is not politically neutral.
