Moronic Shopify Policies
 

What are your feelings on Shopify's dumbass policy from a week and a bit ago? I've taken some time to soak it in because the business I work for uses Shopify for the website.

For those that don't know, on August 13, Shopify updated their acceptable use policy and made a list of "restricted items" but comprised completely of firearms and firearm parts. Its a very blatant attack on firearms, and by extension, an attack on airsoft.

Full list of "restricted items" available here:

In Canada, airsoft guns are classified as firearms. Uncontrolled firearms, but still firearms. Seeing as Shopify is a Canadian company, companies like BlackBlitz Airsoft might get fucked. Shopify is already fucking several US gun companies, who knows when they're gonna start shutting down airsoft sales.

Who else has a website that runs on Shopify?

The above link is where I first heard of it last week. I think it’s a steaming pile of poo... if there is big’ish companies (relative sizing) that may get folded under, I feel bad for The smaller mom & pop sized outfits.

Yet, Shopify is the outfit the lcbo choose to do the cannabis sales online. Hurray for some political agenda

WTF is society comimg too?

An end?

Ban the guns, bring in the pot. Sounds like Sockboi penned it himself. :P
