No - they really aren't. They are simply the biggest and unfortunately so big that for a lot of stuff there is no good alternative. A little like MS really. You may hate them but for some stuff (obviously outside of adult in paypals case) you simply cannot be without them.

The problem with their whole anti-adult thing is they've VERY clearly demonstrated that it's nothing to do with risk management. The over-zealous way they do this has turned it into a true which hunt and moved it well away from it simply being about not processing adult because of risk.

Fortunately the stranglehold they have can be broken over time and with enough investment and I think will happen. You simply can't run a company as badly as they do without it eventually affecting your business no matter how big you are.
