I was trying to buy chips in Internet Casino
(Paradise Poker) and got this:

Your chip purchase was declined by your credit card issuer, most
likely for one of these reasons:

Paradise chip purchases are treated as 'gaming' purchases and some
credit card issuers do not authorize these purchases.
Try another card or set up your bank account directly.

so.........banks CAN stop Credit Card purchases ONLINE when they want it.

Nice and dandy,
but...

1) what if they treat ADULT SITES purchases in the same way?

2) why don't they?

anybody has a "Plan B" when and if they extend the practice to adult sites?
