This is to notify all readers that I and Kitty have terminated our PayPal
accounts and can no longer accept transfers to them.
We have taken this action, even though it will undoubtedly incur some hardship
to us, because of PayPal's recent action of denying service to WikiLeaks (if you
don't know about WikiLeaks, just where have you been?).

As I wrote in my comment to PayPal regarding my reason for cancellation:

"Providing a publication site for *any* information can *not* correctly be one
of "any activities that encourage, promote, facilitate or instruct others to
engage in illegal activity" [PayPal's stated reason for its action - see:
https://www.thepaypalblog.com/2010/12/paypal-statement-regarding-wikileaks/].
And besides, the State can and does declare to be "illegal" any action that it
wishes, regardless of whether or not such action is harmful to individual
persons or their property. Therefore, PayPal has clearly capitulated to US
Government pressure (or presumed soon to be made pressure) by its denial of
service to WikiLeaks.

"I will be strongly urging everyone I know to terminate their accounts at
PayPal, unless and until it re-establishes service to WikiLeaks."


Both I and Kitty do strongly urge all MoreLife/SelfSIP readers to also terminate
their PayPal accounts, being sure to give the reason to PayPal, and to report
their actions as widely as possible.

Note that because of Amazon Web Services denial of hosting services to
WikiLeaks, I and Kitty are also trying to terminate our Amazon accounts, but so
far we have found no way to accomplish this.

All fully identified readers are also invited to post comments to this message
or to post other messages regarding this issue.
