A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

"He says that the company withdrew money that was already in his YouTube payments account." this is the huge part not included in this summary. I don't think an employer can withdraw money from an employee's account. At least not in the EU.

But I'm not a lawyer.

It is very illegal in the EU. It requires quite a lot of burocracy to even start the procedure to do so legally if for example part of the money was given by mistake.

But you cannot just remove an entire salary, not even if they start a procedure to so. That is just asking for a fun session in court.
