We received a letter from @Dan_Schulman, CEO PayPal. So now it’s official: PayPal shuts down its services in Russia citing Ukraine aggression. Thank you @PayPal for your supporting! Hope that soon you will open it in for 🇺🇦
it will: cut off freelancer's income, forcing us to seek jobs inside the country benefiting the government; stop us from going on rallies, we can't pay fines to not get jail time
it won't: stop war. alas putin isn't the biggest buyer of furaffinity comms, i'm sad to inform you
Queer People in Russia critiqued the regime in this country for years, were the most vocal about the situation and most of us are freelancers because it's extremely hard for queer people to find a job here. Now @Paypal is cutting us out and we're left to fend for ourselves.
