My husband and I had a long discussion over this yesterday. The Government/History side of me is appalled that censorship still exists in 2012. However, he pointed out that PayPal is a company that can say who and when they do business. I argued that you can't prevent people of color from sitting at lunch counter even if you are a privately held business, by that statement Paypal can't say who and what transactions they are willing to handle. So now, not only is it censorship, it's also descrimination. He is still siding with Paypal.
Like I said I hope some big authors get involved and take this to court. I would love to see if a court of law would uphold this stance Paypal has taken.
