Watch the Stripe apologist come out in force soon. They’ll brand you as 100% running a crypto CP arms dealing coke selling dark net platform owner because surely YC darling Stripe would never mess up like this. Truth is they are just horrible.


Exactly. The Stripe fans and its nobility will try to keep boosting Stripe's sainthood as if they do no wrong or won't kill your business if you had fraudulent chargebacks (also known as friendly fraud) and will make sure they are only the exception. In reality, you are going to get destroyed by Stripe with such large payments, even if they are not fraudulent.

They actually are killing businesses when they do that and locking their accounts down for months. Even if you have a sum like that for a business or it was an error, well good luck with support as you are not getting that money back and your business will end up shutting down.

That is the dark truth that the Stripe boosters and that the hype squad won't tell you.



Unbelievable right, going through someone’s reddit history to try to defend a corporation and do some victim blaming.


There are also apologists for coinbase. I wonder if these are paid "internet agencies" that realize that brand management is increasingly done through social media.
