I am reading a lot of boycott statement against Paypal in the comments – and I fully understand – but guys... where have you been when Amazon refused to host Wikileaks? And what about EasyDNS?

Paypal is a company doing business and I dislike them as much as you do but please don't forget that Government >> Company. Always.

FYI: EasyDNS had nothing to do with this, it was a misprint by some online journalists.

Amazon is much harder for me to move away from than PayPal. with PayPal, I just transfer my money out and click the cancel button.

With Amazon, I have to re-do my entire deployment setup, since Heroku has made it so freaking easy. Not to mention migrate all of my addon accounts too... significantly more complicated.

I'll still do it, it just won't happen today.

I have the same problem with PayPal. 70% of my income comes from Europe through PayPal. I'm seriously considering moving to Moneybookers, though, for my European customers. This really stinks.

Isn't that the very problem Wikileaks is showcasing here?

I closed my Amazon account too.

Have you legally donated money via paypal that has been frozen? Perhaps if you had you would be quite disgusted!!

Please don't confuse the two because of shoddy reporting! EasyDNS is being dragged through the mud unfairly...
