From Fortune
Staffers have recently received “stern warnings” from management that they shouldn’t mention Jay-Z, whose legal name is Shawn Carter, on internal company forums like email or messaging system Slack, according to three employees who requested anonymity because they are not permitted to speak about corporate matters. No reason was given for the order, the employees said.
Carter is among Block’s nine board members.
In 2021, under CEO Jack Dorsey, Block acquired a majority stake in the music streaming platform Tidal from a company owned by Carter. Dorsey and Carter are said to be personal friends.
Last week, Block laid off dozens of workers from Tidal’s relatively small staff, Fortune reported at the time. Further cuts are expected at Tidal and other Block entities, which also include Square and CashApp, as Dorsey continues to reorganize the company.
Earlier this week, Block laid off some staffers at TBD, its developer platform, as Fortune earlier reported. The platform is now set to be shuttered entirely. There were also layoffs at Square this week, impacting at least 20 people, employees told Fortune.
The order to not mention Carter came last month, as some employees questioned among themselves Carter’s role on Block’s board given his purported long time friendship with P. Diddy, the rapper and entrepreneur whose legal name is Sean Combs. The two have collaborated on music and frequently been photographed together over the years attending things like parties and sporting events. Combs is currently in prison awaiting trial related to a federal indictment accusing him of years of six trafficking and related crimes. Multiple sixual assault allegations and numerous lawsuits against Combs have also been filed.

Maybe I should close my CashApp account?
Jay Z is going out of his way to cover his tracks and prevent whistleblowers and internal business leaks… only someone who has something to hide would work so hard to keep secrets. 🤫
Delete cash app because the same people begging.
Cash app deleted
Or What 😒
Unfortunate, I will be deleting my cash app. Just have to have this past payment processed. Not using anything that involves a connection with Camel.
Damn, when did they buy Cashapp? I know the owner was murdered. But I thought the company was acquired by legitimate people.
Consider closing X-twitter.
Ohh why because birds of a feather flock together 🤔
jack is a customer Buster too unbelievable
Doesn't even matter anymore cats out the bag j is probably the worst monster of them all smh
There's (apparently) something going on that someone does not want the public to know. That's their business but if the employees have non disclosure agreements (NDAs) the agreements cannot be used as shield's to hide criminal activities. I don't trust any of the corporate elites and sellouts.
Paypal is another payment app to watch. They will begin selling customer data later this month. If you're not going to close it at least check your settings and limit your account associations to banks & credit cards.
It is just a matter of time til the enemy collects from him too.
Somebody will speak off the record.
Doesn't Cash app already have a class action lawsuit?? They trying so hard to link Mr. Carter! he been a straight business man . He cashed out during Covid and played the background. He raking up the money leaves just by being on the board. Plus, Mrs Carter been keeping his hands cleans! so a HARD NO to any antics involving “take that take that” unless it’s under contact..lol
My guess is that Mr.Carter is about to relinquish even more of his stake on the board ( they firing people so they can afford to buy him out..lol again) Mr&Mrs Carter gone move on and further diversify their investments
To: 7:02 PM
That's good to know about PayPal. I suspect Camel might be liquidating lots of his assets.
👀👀
Well who de h3llz is DE haven? He came up on my timeline saying that ain't Jay. So is he a clone?
J knows Diddy is talking.
R. Kelly had an album (2) with Jay Z and tours in the past with Diddy.
Jay is dirty!!!
I’m leaving Cashapp and going to Chime as my direct person to person cash sending service app.
VEVO is still owned by PayPal.
Everyone is liquidating. Even America is being liquidated.
Maybe it's the class action suit:
