(Jose Luis Magana/AP)PayPal is terminating its relationship with Alex Jones and his website, Infowars, the online payment service said Friday. YouTube soon took similar enforcement steps against Infowars, saying Jones had “repeatedly” violated its terms of service. Although Twitter initially resisted banning Jones, it, too, removed him from its platform earlier this month with a permanent suspension. Revenue could dry up without an online payment processor. Of those, more than 60 percent went to PayPal after visiting his digital shop, implying that Jones is effective at converting visitors into paying customers.
