Ive been reading what everyone has been saying on the Visa issue. A couple of points/questions I have..

1. From what you've been saying, am I right in assuming that all non US webmasters will now somehow need to open a US company before visa will accept them?

2. Now Visa is charging these 'fees' , whats to stop Mastercard and other cards to follow suit, could we all be up for US$5000 in setup and annual fees over the next few months?
Not a thing to stop Master Card and others from chargeing a fee. From what I have read you will have to have a office...or someone to answer a phone for you...Yes you have to have a US bank account.. So it's more than just a US bank account... I can see it now... A little old lady setting in an office with a phone bank in front of her answering phones for Porn sites.... Also if Visa gets reports from the cc companys guess who else will be able to get those reports.....IRS..... I really think it's more to this than just Visa and fraud...
