Pay Pal did this to me as well. There’s very little consumer protection law in US to disused these companies from just freezing your account and taking your money. The worst part is that these companies usually avoid giving any proper recourse by automating most of this process so good luck finding a person that is willing to help you out. Guilty until proven innocent.

The law is probably the opposite, incentivizing companies to block stuff as opposed to preventing them from doing so.

On the flip side, if it wasn't that way we'd be bombarded with knockoff stuff all over Amazon and others.
