Mainstream institutions (particularly lines of communication, media, etc.) are exceptionally Fragile. The future is with SubStack & related outlets that distribute information & devolve powers & influence away from central outlets & organizations.

In the Meantime, 'Small' is the New Big, & I wish you, Good Sir, All the Very Best!
One problem with Substack is Stripe. Stripe is currently requiring that I provide them full access to all of my bank account records- present and historic- or they will shut off all revenue from Substack. This is over the top not acceptable, and I have taken legal action.
This travesty is unimaginable Dr. Malone. I am so sorry you are enduring this. You’re brilliant, you’re strong and courageous. The Bible says sooner or later truth, the truth will prevail.
Dr.Malone Rumble just yesterday opened Rumble Cloud, supposedly a free speech platform that may be the answer. They now have their own servers that at least for now the communists can’t shut off. If major sub stacks, like yours, start jumping off they may have a change in their toon. I will follow you!!!
Yes, here is a link to "Parallel Economy", a financial services outfit designed to replace Stripe. https://www.paralleleconomy.com/
Frankly I'm a bit surprised the owners at substack haven't been on top of this already. Even I could have told them this (Stripe) would be a problem for their conservative people before long. I did notice this when I paid my subscription and thought it pretty ignorant that substack who touts their free speech advocacy would be using Stripe who I believe is a google subsidiary, or at least in their pocket, and therefore almost certainly NOT an advocator of free speech. I wish I would have brought it up at the time, now.
This new tik tok law is not about banning what tik tok does on the platform in public, but more about what they do with information they collect and who they send it to.
Rumble is offering to take it over and stop the information high-jacking and it's subsequent flow to the CCP.
Yes, Free market is a beautiful thing. For too long there hasn’t been alternatives. Maybe this will help them to come back to being a first amendment loving company. Tyranny can not exist without lists of subversives….
I believe Dan Bongino is one of the investors. Praying for you Dr Malone and the lovely Dr. Jill Malone. I will follow you wherever you are. Much love from shithole Canada.
Yes, I knew that Stripe would be the eventual $$ regulatory body of Substack. So all financial eggs cannot be in this basket. I am so pleased that your stack grew as big as has.
Most of us are on more than a few substacks. It wouldn't be too hard to organize a resistance to this. They want our subscription money so we hold the cards. Let us know what makes sense, Doc.
I’m crossing my fingers that your legal action will succeed. How can Substack justify this violation of privacy and sovereignty? Substack needs to provide a different method of collecting our payments and making the funds available to you. Please write an article about this problem, and please let your readers know who we can contact to protest this travesty.
So glad to hear that! My prayers are with you in this and all other efforts. This is a crucially important case, and once again, I'm deeply grateful to you for putting in all of your and Jill's deeply intelligent thoughtfulness and effort, and demonstrating that you are both still standing! Bret Weinstein couldn't have said it better when he said there's a Dream Team working on behalf of all of humanity.
Like many others of your "Brethren", I would and WILL stand beside you and defend what I believe you have PROVED TO BE CORRECT AND IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF MANKIND. As a side issue, it still amazes me that such a large part of Humanity can STILL believe the Bullshit!
Hey hey Les, it is PEOPLEKIND, remember azzhat Castro Jr. told us all on a live TV, after the huge backlash he got, said he was joking and should leave it to the comedians, to do that. WTF as Pierre P said in the house of commons a little while back!!!!!
I take your point Dear Donna, but from my perspective it IS and WILL ALWAYS remain MANKIND. I refuse to be influenced by or submit to this socialism/communism crap. It is Far more dangerous than most People think.
Amen to that. I have and always will use Mankind, regardless of what others, especially Castro Jr. may say. I pray he leaves this once beautiful country alone, goes wherever, far far away. God Bless!!
I think we will soon be forced to use smoke signals and the "One if by land, two if by sea" method. Personally, (and I am in no way an influencer or public figure), I still prefer to keep "important" conversations on a face-to-face level. Everything we write and everything we speak on our phones is monitored. Orwell was a prophet.
Correct...but we cannot give up the free speech of the internet...we need to continue on all the platforms also..never give up as that is defeat. Use the best platforms that promote free speech, and even those that do not. RM suggested he have alternatives/parallel operations...sad but true...evil will follow him every step, so he is wise to continue planning parallel...evil never stops it is always creeping in. The mere fact he continues to be targeted now for years, just proves how effective and how right he is about TRUTH.
They haven't gotten to me, because weedom is new and small, and offers same access for free and paid. But I knew of Stripe as a processor before I signed up with SubStack. None of the large banks and processors like diversion from the mainstream program of thought. It makes them nervous because they ultimately depend on backing from governments, and are highly regulated, (in addition to whatever ideologies they might hold).
Once a person with independent thought reaches scale, the suppression starts, and it's pretty permanent. Been there, done that.
Now my interest is to offer natural food and meds info to whomever wants it. Creator says that everyone is my neighbor (even if I think that some of them suk 🤣)
My understanding is one of the big banks Wells Fargo has been shutting down a few bank accounts without warning and its thought it could relate to this requirement.
Yep, that's true. But, I will continue to avoid supporting the ones with poor or no conservative principles. I don't believe your "workaround" bites stripe in the pocketbook like a shrinking user base will.
From a limited search it appears the problem with Stripe has been ongoing and they reserve the right to rescind their services at any time for any reason.
I was not aware of this prior to today and I am distressed that yet again our little community that wants freedom of speech will be forced out into yet another avenue.
I checked it out too and thought the same. What's up with that? Of course, it appears the West has been the 'poison pill' in the world for a long long time. However, it wasn't the 'people'.

Sounds like I need to launch a parallel operation.
Contact Dan Bongino who an original user and Rumble investor. Rumble is preparing to bid for Tik Tok. Rumble is a free speech platform par excellence.

Why would they want TikTok?
A couple Billion users?

Aha
Yes, Free market is a beautiful thing. For too long there hasn’t been alternatives. Maybe this will help them to come back to being a first amendment loving company. Tyranny can not exist without lists of subversives….
Dagny Taggart would agree.
Yes, it's interesting that you use the word parallel. Please see my comment to JWSPOONERMD below.

I hope you will. Please keep us updated on the lawsuit.
Would love to connect to Dr.M’s Epoch Fallout show… can I do it right through your link?
Thank You!!

I await authorization by my Attorney to go to the press. I have already lined up some major alt platforms.

Elated to know Bret knows there's a Dream Team at work! Did he say more? Wondering who/where...
See the first of Bret's two recent interviews with Tucker Carlson. Both interviews are insightful
Yes, that was good. Scary, but good just the same.

Please keep us posted on the legal status! 🥲is their nowhere we can communicate without unnecessary or invasive policies ?

That is terrible.
If Stripes needs all of your bank records, would that not include a paid subscribers credit card numbers too
What is Stripe?
Payment processor for SubStack. How we writers take in subscription $$.
Are they requiring everyone to give them that kind of access?
They haven't gotten to me, because weedom is new and small, and offers same access for free and paid. But I knew of Stripe as a processor before I signed up with SubStack. None of the large banks and processors like diversion from the mainstream program of thought.

Now my interest is to offer natural food and meds info to whomever wants it. Creator says that everyone is my neighbor (even if I think that some of them suk 🤣)
A major credit card processor.
Is that because of the money laundering reporting set up by the government? Becomes useful for other agendas?
My understanding is one of the big banks Wells Fargo has been shutting down a few bank accounts without warning and its thought it could relate to this requirement.
What??
Stripe is out of control.
What???
Outrageous.
Outfox them. Pretend you're Robert Vesco.
Why not set up a new and separate bank account just to receive Stripe payments from Substack and nothing else?
It's the principle of the thing. Stripe is showing their evil side. They need to get put back in their place. OR be gone... whatever works.
There are principles and there are workaround solutions. Tech companies will always take as much of your data as you allow.
Yep, that's true. But, I will continue to avoid supporting the ones with poor or no conservative principles. I don't believe your "workaround" bites stripe in the pocketbook like a shrinking user base will.
From a limited search it appears the problem with Stripe has been ongoing and they reserve the right to rescind their services at any time for any reason.
I was not aware of this prior to today and I am distressed that yet again our little community that wants freedom of speech will be forced out into yet another avenue.
Today was such a disappointment. I am in despair.
Have you conversed with attorney Jeff Childers? He writes coffee and Covid. Would not think he would go along with disclosing all that for stripe.

From these links, it seems you are predicting and explaining and encouraging the fall of the West...i.e. America? Correct?
I checked it out too and thought the same. What's up with that? Of course, it appears the West has been the 'poison pill' in the world for a long long time. However, it wasn't the 'people'.
