Conservatives need to understand the overall risk of using those platforms to begin with. It sucks that things aren't on an equal footing, but it's a free market.
If your business can handle discriminating against something you stand against, so be it.

I could see them just canceling is account for a poor reason, but I find it harder to believe that they would lock his access to his funds without some valid reason to.

PayPal can just debit your bank account. There's no reason to actually keep a balance in PayPal itself.

PayPal already has a track record for deplatforming based upon ideology alone.

Happened to me years ago. I'm a FFL, licensed firearm dealer. Sold a gun to a guy who paid with PayPal. They took my money and his.
