You're mixing up two different countries policies. The $2,500 applies to US (and has been around for over a decade), the paragraph you are quoting applies to Australia it's off that countries Use Policy (not the USA). They are not related. Paypal has different policies in different countries.

  OP was a little bit of a doofus to post the link from a country that already has this policy. But it turns out he's directionally right that the United States policy is getting this new language. https://www.paypalobjects.com/marketing/ua/pdf/US/en/acceptableuse-full-110322.pdf https://www.paypalobjects.com/marketing/ua/pdf/US/en/accepta...

    Well I looked at the live AUP when I had posted my comment and it had not been changed. Your link just pulls up a blank PDF. Typically they send out an email to sellers every-time they update terms on the site so if they were planning on doing this it never made it to the live site (I never received an email), and they've received a fair amount of backlash at this point so it would appear if they were planning on doing this they've backed down for now.
