"This decision is based upon our reasonable belief that WikiLeaks may be engaged in activities that are, among other things, inconsistent with our internal policies for processing payments," the Bank of America statement added.
Really? Or does it have something to do with the reports that WikiLeaks will be releasing some internal BoA documents soon?

- gnosis 16y agoIt would be interesting to know exactly which policies BoA is referring to, and why it thinks Wikileaks is in violation of those policies. Without specifics, it's impossible to know whether Wikileaks is in violation at all.
- jamesbritt 16y agoThat's my thought, too. "Internal policies"? Might as well just call them secret policies if they're not going to show what specific policies were violated, and how any client or customer can know in advance if any of these policies might be violated. How can one reliably do business with a company that will deny service to customers based on secret policies? I have a business account with BoA, but I'm moving it because I can't see doing business with a bank that thinks they're entitled to decide how I spend my money.
