The platform shut down the campaign to support the convoy, saying that what began as a peaceful demonstration had devolved into something violent and illegal
After being blasted, GoFundMe has decided to automatically refund some $9 million donated to the anti-vax Freedom Convoy 2022 protest that has turned into an occupation in Ottawa, Canada.
Initially, GoFundMe said donors had two weeks to apply for a refund before the money would be donated to a charity. “Due to donor feedback, we are simplifying the process and automatically refunding donations,” it said on Saturday in a tweet. On Friday, the platform shut down the campaign to support the convoy, saying that what began as a peaceful demonstration had devolved into something violent and illegal.
