I've been told many times that I need a paypal account, and you can see that many bloggers have it. They're like virtual "pushkas," "pay-me charity boxes on their blogs.
"If you like what I write, pay something, please."I haven't done it. No, it's not because I don't need the money, it's just that I can't imagine confiding official information needed for a banking account to some computer screen. Also for the longest time "paypal" was one of the drawing cards of viruses, hackers etc trying to get information you wouldn't want to give out.
Apparently, they don't want to work with WikiLeaks anymore and WikiLeaks is taking revenge. I don't want to be a casualty of cyber-war. Ironically, I just finished reading a book, Case of Lies by Perri O'Shaughnessy, which deals with internet hacking. I can type, but I don't understand how any of this hacking etc works. I don't keep my money under my mattress, but I'm not trying paypal so quickly, especially after this.
