I wonder why people hated Paypal so much.
Well, since you obviously did NOT explore the link that I provided
HERE, I will bring the link to you.
http://paypalsucks.com/images/logo.gif PayPal SucksSPECIAL NOTICE & WARNING: PayPal is now an eBay company.Why would you ever want to give these people access to your credit card or checking account?http://paypalsucks.comhttp://www.paypalpetition.comhttp://www.aboutpaypal.orghttp://www.paypalwarning.comhttp://www.ripoffreport.comWhat more needs to be said about a government that IGNORES Paypal's abuses while robbing Liberty Dollar of their warehoused gold, silver and copper?
Need another reason? How about this one:
- Before leaving the interview room I asked for the reason that a warrant was served on my flat and I was told that it had something to do with an eBook that I had purchased with Paypal. Of course, I instantly knew the book in question. It was P.A. Luty's Expedient Homemade Firearms—I knew this because there was no other eBooks that I had bought with Paypal.

If you ignore all these warnings,
you get what you deserve and will justly deserve what you get.
(The same warning goes for government airports.)

PayPal cuts Wikileaks access for donationsThe online payments processor, PayPal, says it has cut access for donations to the whistle-blowing website Wikileaks.
PayPal said its payment service cannot be used for activities "that encourage, promote, facilitate or instruct others to engage in illegal activity".
[So just exactly WHAT is the "illegal activity"? WHAT has Wikileaks or Julian Assange been charged with, and WHEN and WHERE was the trial and conviction?
PayPal also KEPT the WikiLeaks funds that it has collected. THAT is open, bald-faced ROBBERY!! Where is "the law" when it is needed?
PayPal SUCKS and SUCKS and SUCKS!...and so does government!]Wikileaks' latest releases - of US diplomatic cables - have caused considerable embarrassment to the US and its allies, correspondents say.
[Dear government,
As you keep telling US MUNDANES: "If you've done nothing wrong, you've got nothing to fear."]It has been forced to change its web address after sustained cyber attacks.
In a statement, US-based PayPal said donations could no longer be made to Wikileaks because of "a violation of the PayPal Acceptable Use Policy"
Earlier, the company providing Wikileaks with its domain name, EveryDNS.net, cut off service because the domain wikileaks.org had become the target of "multiple distributed denial of service (DDOS) attacks".
The company said: "These attacks have, and future attacks would, threaten the stability of the EveryDNS.net infrastructure, which enables access to almost 500,000 other websites."
Wikileaks later reappeared using a Swiss web address.
It had earlier turned to the online store
Amazon to host its site but the company ended the agreement on Wednesday - a move welcomed by US officials.
[Big surprise! Amazon and PayPal are owned by the same company. So AMAZON SUCKS TOO!]Amazon said Wikileaks had failed to adhere to its terms of service.
[Do I see a pattern of cowardice here? Yes, I do!]"It's clear that Wikileaks doesn't own or otherwise control all the rights to this classified content. Further it is not credible that the extraordinary volume of 250,000 classified documents that Wikileaks is publishing could have been carefully redacted in such a way as to ensure that they weren't putting innocent people in jeopardy," Amazon said on its website.
[Amazon conveniently ignores the Congressional investigation that reported that NO INNOCENT LIVES have been lost or put in jeopardy because of what WikiLeaks published.] (

"An envelope full of money passed by hand through a throng of drunken revelers seems like it would get to its intended recipient faster and more effectively than Paypal."
