Or, because as you say it's money (I agree) the Stripe will put their "morals" in place - with the financial result they reduce risk, get less chargebacks and lower costs - then pass the savings on to the C-suite.
Morals, generously interpretation of the usage, was just to indicate that Stripe has a more narrow risk window.
Only an idiot would think it was about actual human-grade morals or ethics. Let alone that there were actual morality police.
Yes, hence the value of an acquisition that has found a way to service these lines of business very profitably.
The tone of your original comment suggests you believe they're going to take over and start shutting off morally unacceptable money printers.
I'm sure that PayPal does serve them (first hand knowledge). I'm sure that Stripe selectively restricts them (first hand knowledge).
I do believe that Stripe will execute they same Stripe pattern in the merged company which will reduce choices in the market for businesses.

Correct. But do you understand why that is? What is the theory of mind you have that makes you believe Stripe would come in and shutting off paying customers?

Why would they do that? This doesn't make any sense unless you actually think morals are involved.
Stripe only accepts the ones where there is cross-over and relationships between high-level employees and investors.
They restrict the ones that are smaller and independent.
I think that Stripe will shut off paying customers BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN THEM DO IT. That is what first hand knowledge is.
The thing that really doesn't make sense is that Stripe selectively applies their written terms of service and policies. Do you understand that?
