I just post info and my personal opinion about this practice.
Then I need to deal with gaslighting moron who always complains…

 

If they would only accept PayPal as a payment service, there should be no problems with customers using VPN:s or other kinds of privacy protection tools. They even claim themselves that "Should PayPal ever integrate into Shopify Payments, something we do not have control over, it will be made available at that time". From what I understand after reading on Shopify's and PayPal's websites, PayPal is already integrated into Shopify Payments: https://newsroom.paypal-corp.com/20...ower-a-portion-of-Shopify-Payments-in-the-U-S



I don't feel safe using my own credit or debit cards when buying things online, so if an online store doesn't have PayPal, I don't buy from them.

 

If you want to get rid of those "Adblockers are not permitted" messages and be able to watch YouTube without issues, try using Brave. You don't need to install any third-party adblockers, everything is integrated into Brave from the get-go. The only thing you might want to do is to go through the default Brave Shield and other privacy settings before you begin using it. The stock default settings should block all ads on YouTube and other sites, but I don't think it blocks third-party cookies by default (can't remember though).

 

Please take another look at his first picture/post; Brave is not allowed there!
