  Big Brain AI (@realBigBrainAI) reported 7 minutes ago

  Oracle Co-Founder and Chairman Larry Ellison on why AI is fundamentally different from every tech bubble that came before it: He starts with the internet bubble — not to warn us, but to make a distinction most people are missing. "When people talk about bubbles, what is a bubble? People get exuberant. But the internet was an incredible new technology. It remains the foundation of computing, and we couldn't have AI without the internet." The technology was never the problem. The confusion was. "People started confusing internet companies like PayPal, or even worse internet search, with pets/com." He breaks it down simply: "The fact that I can sell pet food on an e-commerce site doesn't suddenly mean I'm an internet company. Not really." PayPal used the web to build something genuinely new. Pets/com just moved an existing business online and called it innovation. Same label. Completely different substance. He sees the pattern repeating today: "Yes, there'll be people spending money on AI because almost every tech company these days calls themselves an AI company. But they're not. A lot of them are not." But here is where Ellison draws the line between then and now. The internet was foundational. But AI is something else entirely: "AI in terms of its value, this is the highest value technology we have ever seen. By far."

  @libsoftiktok @PayPal They're garbage. I have a few bucks sitting there that can't be moved unless I give them time of KYC. I told them ***. This is why people need NON-CUSTODIAL crypto and wallets. CakeWallet and Monero fix this. BTC has claims but it's a fully traceable NFT.

  @codeofvets @PayPal @stripe You are most welcome. I am so sorry that Paypal has let you down so badly, but hopefully Stripe will be more than an adequate replacement; so that your work doesn’t get interrupted again. PayPal needs to review its policies and they should think first before doing things.

  @TutaPrivacy Wise for international transfers, Revolut for everyday use. But the PayPal breach is a good reminder that the payment layer isn't the only thing worth auditing- most people lock down their payments before they think about what their calendar or contacts are leaking.

  The Arcane Verse⚕️ (@Telephantix) reported 33 minutes ago

  @FTC I am following up on an official complaint I filed with your office a few years ago. I continue to experience issues with several companies that appear to block or withhold funds through their policies or technology. These companies include Gmail, Cash App, PayPal, and X (formerly Twitter). Cash App is embedded within the X platform, yet after years they still claim I never received funds that should have reached me. I strongly suspect fabricated transaction numbers or records, which I believe constitutes fraud. These actions have resulted in the loss of life-changing sums of money due to what appears to be poor policy enforcement and/or malfeasance. I respectfully request that the FTC investigate these companies for unfair and deceptive practices. Please advise on the status of my prior complaint and what additional documentation or steps are needed to move forward. Thank you for your assistance. Joshua Lowden @Telephantix

  @NoLimitGains Lol, I hate that stock. I still own a bunch but it's down 70 or 80 percent since I was a retard and bought it. PayPal is dying, regardless of ita fundamentals.

  @libsoftiktok @PayPal Paypal goin down hill...they have a policy if you use PayPal money to spread what they say is misinformation, you get fined like 2k a month or something...so if u used PayPal to buy a billboard that said the 2020 election was stolen, you would be fined.

  @ZandoraVT But this is purely Paypal which has always been an issue for many artists. If someone was planning to chargeback they will either u commission it on vgen or Kofi or carrd or any other platform. I don’t trust Paypal for that reason

  @codeofvets @PayPal This is why I shut down my account years ago when they announced their new policy of basically "if we suspect you of anything or just don't like you we will close your account and fine you $1,200 completely at our discretion. There will be no appeal process so don't even ask."

  @dedes016 @ZakariaMDv3 @KKaaRRii2 They used to send me a PayPal invoice but they won’t do anymore. Last time I had to join PayPal’s XOOM app and it lets you wire funds directly to their bank in India $$. It sounds complicated but not really. The sellers are super polite and can text in English no problem.

  @codeofvets @PayPal PayPal is straight trash. I had an account for years with no issues, then about 5 years ago they suspended my account and said they needed access to my email and social media accounts to continue. I told em to eat a bag of *****.

  The theme across Peter Thiel's career is exit. Banking broken? PayPal. Intelligence broken? Palantir. Startup funding too slow? Founders Fund. Public square too noisy? Dialogue. The pattern is not subtle.

  My biggest problem wasn't analytics. It was integration. Stripe still isn't available in my country, unfortunately. Most of my businesses run on WordPress with local payment gateways, PayPal, WooCommerce, FluentCart, and Easy Digital Downloads. The analytics tools I used weren't built around that setup.
