I especially don't get why they don't learn from the mistakes of others that have been burned.

Information in our space is very poorly distributed. Many business-owners may have not even heard of these cases.

If you absolutely must use it (and you don't) then attach the PayPal account to its own dedicated checking account and get that money to an account unaffiliated with PayPal ASAP except a small amount to cover any returns.

This is a great recommendation.

Do you have any recommendations for other services?

Do you have any recommendations for other services?

As far as payment processors?

There is Cornerstone, a Christian payment processor that might be willing to get behind this, though they have a bit of a checkered past with data security.

There are the mainstream Stripe, Square and smaller ones like Shopify Payments and FastSpring that are either definitely or likely run by regressives, but at least have less of a history of running off with money and act as a check on PayPal's market dominance.

Checks, money orders, and bank transfers are a PITA for customers and businesses, but might be the way forward for avoiding regressive censorship. It's probably a good idea to have a backup plan involving them if nothing else.

There really is no perfect solution, but just not using PayPal is a start.

There's also Dan Bongino's AlignPay, though I haven't seen it being used anywhere and don't know how reliable they are yet because it's pretty new.

Thanks! I mean to write a short guide about this, so everything helps.
