Title: PayPal [..] Reimagining How Money Moves to Anyone, Anywhere.
Text: PayPal users in the U.S. can begin [..] today, with international expansion [..] starting later this month.
So immediately out of the box it is exactly NOT for "anyone" and NOT "anywhere".
This is contagious: a couple of years ago Gnosis tried to launch their Gnosis Card[1] on Berlin DappCon with the exact same slogan: "Anyone, anywhere" while only accepting applications from a select group of people living in select EU countries.
I have had discussion with their CEO right there regarding this marketingspeak but he did not seem to grasp what's the problem at all here.
You can't make this shit up.
Yeah, it’s textbook USdefaultism.
"Look how global we are… as long as you have a U.S. address, the correct passport, a bank account in a supported country, a smartphone with the correct OS."
Well in fairness they really have reimagined how money moves to anyone anywhere, they just haven't changed it yet. Plus they used a verb tense suggesting the process is ongoing. If they said "we changed how money moves to anyone anywhere" then that would be inaccurate, but that's not what they said.
It is almost like there were two departments in play. One that did reimagine how the global crypto money works, and the other who cannot image transacting without a recent utility bill. And they met in the press release.
