Its a wonder people still use the service after articles like this come to light. Its not the first time Paypal has pulled this stunt. A mass boycott isn't out of order.

Okay, I'll boycott Paypal and use... oh wait, no alternatives :(


So make one... this is HN after all.

EDIT - Make one and I'll signup. There is your first client.


There's things you can make with will power and desire, there are things that need insane amounts of money and influence to make. This is the latter.


OK, I've made one. It's at www. -- wait, what's this, somebody at the door from a law firm? Patents? Subpoenas? Preliminary injunctions...? Help!


PayPal gets away with a lot of ridiculous behavior because it gets to act like a bank, without being constrained by any of the regulations normally applied to banks.

I don't know anyone who has a positive word to say about them. They're unfortunately the only game in town for certain services/transactions.
