  Ms Ziles… you are doing witchcraft on people and killing people. I have physical proof because you are messing with my x account. You have hacked into my computer, deleted things from my QuickBooks account locked my PayPal account and you’re fake sitting on your pedestal… you are a failed CEO and you should spend more time at your company than you do ******* with my account. I am not the person to play with because I tell you what my extended family just had two bouts of cancer. Another can can’t get their career off the ground. They’re constantly being drained and they’re constantly being targeted so I suggest you sit ******** down and shut ******** up and that’s final. Focus on your children, your company and your career because if you don’t, I will take all of it. I am not the person that needs to be humbled. I have laid low for 44 years.

  I'm up 12.4% on my Paypal shares. It hasn't gone down at all since I bought them. I probably missed my chance to go big.

  @anthonynoto Saw your interview with CNBC . Do you hear yourself ? @anthonynoto “Stocks up 170% in the last 2 years “ Are you really proud of that ? Stock went from 4$ to 18$ in 6 years if you being CEO “Stock is reflective of macro environment “ “ $hood is up for the year “ “ $Dave is up for the year” Even PayPal is down less than Sofi for the year ! If one of your employees at $sofi underperformed for 6 straight years, what would you do @anthonynoto ? Keep them or fire them ? We all know the answer ! Fact is you have failed at your fiduciary duty to provide returns for your shareholders . Infact you do the opposite , dilute shareholders at every opportunity . If this was any other job , and the board wasn’t scared of your power to fire them , you would be gone ! #facts

  For now, I only have it set up to be paid for via a paypal business invoice! I don't know whether this restricts things by much but hopefully that doesn't spell a problem for anyone interested!

  I think people are giving Phoebe Gates far less grace than they'd give almost any other first-time founder. Remember this is the same industry which is known for these dark patterns, like honey and no one here shamed the honey founders when they did it. Only a lawsuit was filed against PayPal which is the natural progression of things. Not to mention the whistleblower here was a direct competitor, Capital One so it's actually a big company bringing down a startup. Generally in such scenarios people support the startup but here it's the reverse. Its essentially that her last name has made this a much bigger story than it would have been for most founders. If Phia had been started by two unknown twenty-somethings, the conversation would probably be about a browser extension that crossed a line. Because one of the founders is Phoebe Gates, it quickly became a debate about her character. It's also easy to forget that she didn't simply inherit a company. Bill Gates didn't fund Phia. She and Sophia Kianni raised outside capital, built a team, launched a product, and convinced people to use it. Having famous parents can open doors, but it also means every mistake gets judged more harshly and every headline carries extra weight.

  Elon Musk was asked what advice he'd give to his younger self. Most billionaires answer this with something about taking more risks or believing in yourself earlier. Elon said he would tell his younger self to spend less time working. The interviewer laughed. Elon didn't. He explained that the version of him that built PayPal, SpaceX, and Tesla did so at a cost that he's not sure was worth paying. That there are years he doesn't remember because he was inside a factory for 100 hours a week and the days blurred into one long shift. That he missed relationships, health, and moments with his children that he can never recover. He said the tragedy isn't that he chose work. It's that he's not capable of choosing differently. That his brain is wired to see unsolved problems as emergencies and he doesn't know how to turn that off. Even knowing the cost, even regretting the cost, he would probably do the same thing again because he can't help it. That's the answer nobody wants to hear from the most successful builder alive. That the thing that made him extraordinary is the same thing that took everything else. And he'd warn his younger self about it while knowing the warning would be ignored. Some lessons can only be learned by living them. Even if you already know the answer.

  @expressvpn To the ExpressVPN Team, I am writing this letter with profound disappointment and indignation. Your decision to permanently terminate my account treated me as though I were a fraudster, someone attempting to deceive your company. Nothing could be further from the truth. The issue did not originate from any dishonest act on my part. My credit card was unexpectedly canceled by my bank without prior notice. That unforeseen event triggered a chain reaction, ultimately leading to restrictions on my PayPal account. I refused to accept that injustice. I sought justice through the Brazilian courts. After the legal proceedings, I prevailed. The courts recognized my rights, and my PayPal account was restored. I also obtained a favorable judgment against the bank responsible for the wrongful cancellation of my credit card. These events demonstrate that I was not acting in bad faith. I was the victim of circumstances created by institutions whose mistakes caused unnecessary damage to my reputation and financial life. Yet ExpressVPN chose to judge me without understanding the facts. Instead of contacting me, requesting documentation, or allowing me to explain what had happened, your company erased my account as though I were nothing more than another criminal trying to abuse your services. That decision was unfair, disproportionate, and deeply disrespectful. For years, I believed that ExpressVPN stood for privacy, trust, and respect for its customers. Instead, when I needed fairness, I received condemnation without a hearing. Justice is not merely about enforcing rules; it is about distinguishing between intentional fraud and honest customers caught in circumstances beyond their control. You had every opportunity to investigate. You had every opportunity to ask for evidence. You had every opportunity to act with fairness. Instead, you chose the easiest path: permanent exclusion. Companies that pride themselves on protecting digital rights should never abandon the fundamental principle that every person deserves to be heard before being condemned. I do not ask for sympathy. I ask for justice. I ask that ExpressVPN conduct a genuine review of my case, examine the court decisions that restored my PayPal account, consider the legal outcome involving the bank, and recognize that the circumstances surrounding my payment issues were not the result of fraud, but of events that have already been examined through the legal system. A company earns respect not by refusing to correct a mistake, but by having the courage to acknowledge one. I sincerely hope ExpressVPN chooses fairness over assumptions and evidence over prejudice. I await your response. Respectfully,

  Just an FYI if you buy CDs or Merch online - always use paypal! It’s a week and my @Madonna CD still hasn’t materialised, nor has a refund. You can’t call #BSIMerch because they have so many issues, they don’t take calls so you’re basically stuck until/if they decide to refund

  I started this donation drive 10 days ago, and we have already reached more than 117,000 PHP. 🥹 Despite the PayPal issues and all the stress that came with it, the truth is that I have never regretted starting this donation drive. Story time: As some of you may know, there have been people spreading rumors and false accusations about me, including calling me a scammer. This has been happening for months. I tried my best to ignore it, but I won’t lie, it affected me, especially because I am also part of another fandom aside from being a Yobie. When the ticket sales started, I actually had no plans of creating a donation drive. I simply sponsored one ticket myself because I wanted to help in a small way. I also encouraged others to sponsor, and I was able to connect someone who wanted to help with someone who needed a ticket. At that point, I was just acting as a bridge between fans who wanted to give support and fans who needed assistance. Then someone messaged me wanting to donate, and I thought, why not? Why should I let other people stop me from helping Yoko? If I stopped supporting her because of rumors and accusations, even when I know I did nothing wrong, then that would mean they succeeded in stopping me from doing something good. So I decided to start this donation drive. Honestly, I never expected that so many people would support it, especially with everything that has been said about me. That is why I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you not only to everyone who donated, but also to those who continue sharing my posts, spreading the word, and showing your trust and support. You have no idea how much it means to me. Thank you for believing in me and for allowing me to continue doing something I genuinely want to do: supporting Yoko. 🫶🏼
