Citibank Cancels Bank Account of Objectionable Blogger

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the there's-gotta-be-more-to-this dept.

Keith found this story about Citibank blocking a website's bank account after deciding that the site's blog contained questionable content. I guess it's up to a bank to decide whom to do business with, but this is pretty crazy.

  1. How Is This Nerd News??!! by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 5, Insightful

    You post one side of some obscure blog's events, and this is front page news?!! Of course there must be more details to this, but we wouldn't get it from this lame submission.

    I can't even see how this issue is really relevant to nerds here. There's no tech connection, no connection to anything really.

    I really don't understand why anyone would bank with a big corporate bank instead of a credit union.
