BDS campaign and Donorbox

mardi 15 janvier 2019 à 01:00

An Israeli dirty tricks group has got the Palestinian Boycott-Divestment-Sanctions campaign blocked from receiving donations via Donorbox.

I do not advocate the Boycott-Divestment-Sanctions campaign. (I advocate the boycott of products made in Israel's colonies in Palestinian territory, which was launched by Gush Shalom.) I would not donate to the BDS campaign. Nonetheless, it is a legitimate campaign and I condemn the dirty trick.

Is it possible to donate on Donorbox without running nonfree software (such as Javascript)? Based on what I've seen in other such sites, such as Patreon, I expect it is not. I would not donate to anyone or anything on Donorbox at the cost of my freedom. When I donate to organizations and campaigns, I do it by mailing a check.

The first step in learning the habit of standing up for your freedom is to give freedom priority.
