| New York Times is reporting that Visa & MC are suspending operations in that
place that we shall not mention. That will affect Stripe, and PayPal (which has
already cut ties).

That kinda sucks for the regular people of Russia who are just trying to go about
their daily lives, despite the actions of their ruler and his military forces.

The NYT article says ...
For VISA, they plan to "cease" all transactions within a week.
For MC, they will not be processing any cross-border transactions (in either
direction) but internal transactions (local bank + local cardholder + local merchant)
will continue to function.

So far it is only international transactions that they are stopping, they are
not stopping all transactions. If a Russian seller sells mainly to Russuans then
it will make little difference.

I literally replied "Moderators". That was it. One word in quotations. And it
got cancelled. Are you guys going insane?

Did you quote the previous message? I've had messages cancelled before because
the previous message I quoted was inappropriate/political.

I didn't mean to. Maybe that was it. Although that didn't seem political
at all. People tend to lose the benefit of the doubt after they lose trust.

I agree. My post about Russia yesterday was not political at all and yet it was
cancelled anyway. Seems like any mention of Russia/Ukraine, political or not,
is subject to censure.
I don't want to point fingers, but I noticed a sharp increase in the number
of cancelled messages after we got a new discussion forum moderator. But there's
also a lot going on in the world right now, so maybe things will change soon…

Yeah, there's that, too. But seriously? We can't talk about Russia in
a non-political context? For example, today I learned that Russia's birthrate
is so low that the population is actually declining. The same is true of a lot
of other former Soviet republics. But who am I to judge, I live in Illinois…

Hahaha yeah it's crazy to think that Chicago's population is just 75%
of what was in 1950. But all things considered we're very lucky. Detroit
lost more than half of its population in the same period! However, the suburbs
have expanded a lot since then. At least now some people are working from home
instead of commuting into the city every day…
