>>>redirected to PayPal
Which allowed you to buy it -- for now. See, there's a weak link in that chain. Just two weeks ago there was a huge uproar over PayPal rejecting payments for books they unilaterally and unjustifiably deemed "offensive."
And they can do that to any comedian too.
- dangrossman 15y agoSo can any payment processor, direct or third party. Right up to the top, with Visa and MasterCard declining to process for Wikileaks. Your point?
- notatoad 15y agoi think the point is that paypal is much more likely to cut you off (or even run away with your money) than visa or mastercard is.
- mikecane 15y agoWikileaks is not content. That's more political than anything else, with the Patriot Act used to threaten the processors.
- DrCatbox 15y agoSounds like a good idea, lets stop all transactions going to any organization that might have political goals.
