Paypal starting to pull accounts that promote piracy?

Could be the start of a good thing?

Oh gawd i hope so!

what do u think?

No but we can hope.

Banning a VPN provider while allowing a truckload of scamming hosts to sell what they please is hardly a crackdown on piracy.

Another step in the journey.

yey :thumbsup:thumbsup

They still process for hundreds of lockers, extabit, 1hostclick.. tons.. even though they know it's illegal. They should also be named in these suits as well. :2 cents:

Dear Paypal,

I just clicked the link, then click Premium and it takes me here where I can use Paypal to purchase stolen copyrighted pornography.
http://1hostclick.com/**************

http://1hostclick.com/?op=payments

This particular copyrighted porn movie you are processing on is our client's licensed motion picture:

**************
Type of Work: Motion Picture
Registration Number / Date: PA**************
Application Title: **************
Title: **************
Description: Videodisc (DVD)
Copyright Claimant: **************
etc..

I should also note that 1hostclick, nor any of it parent companies, maintain a designated copyright agent here:
http://www.copyright.gov/onlinesp/

So.. I suppose that's 3 strikes against Paypal now... porn, copyrighted, no designated agent.

No response.

uh huh 4 real

Was this an email or a registered letter from a lawyer? If you want to get noticed, an email isn't the best way.

I wonder what suing paypal would be like.
