It is likely that they didn't catch the linked problem, and I didn't intend to suggest so. What the linked article shows is that the Red Cross isn't beyond the suspicion that something they did wasn't that clealy above board that an algorithm couldn't possibly have been triggered.
The algorithms was triggered before any attempt to send the funds anywhere was made, and without any knowledge of where the funds were going, and with the stated concern that they might not be going to a charity.
Yes, we get it, it's ironic that the Red Cross didn't look so good either in the aftermath of Katrina, but this has literally nothing to do with Paypal or their algorithms.
