Huge marketing opportunity for WePay! (and also a huge opportunity to do the right thing)
1 comments

Are WePay being used by Wikileaks?

How will WePay as a US company offer any real guarantee not to do the same?

Can WePay make any commitment or guarantee given that they are integrated into a system and other entities (i.e. Visa, Mastercard, etc) could pull their plug over this?

I'm really just curious. If WePay honestly will do the right thing and treat money as money regardless of how people choose to spend it (the whole thing here... porn, politics, etc) and to do so with a real guarantee that means this can never happen, then I just do not see how this is any opportunity for them.

And how will WePay's board like this idea?
