What is the definition for "misinformation" that they use? Is it ok if I'm wrong about something from time to time?


I don't think they set one. Its better for them if its vague.


part of the problem is that they used a definition so large it could include anything that may be offensive to a paypal employee.


Afaik, there is no definition, its arbtitrary so they can charge anyone.


Wrongthink of any sort.


Selectively and retroactively enforced, probably.
