I would like to put out a call for CCbill and Epoch to help the communities they serve.

Since the .XXX tld has been rammed down our throats when we have been pretty clear that we don't want it, it came to me that we could actually kill it in it's tracks, before any damage is done, before any government blocks it, before any state forbids ISPs in that state to pass it to consumers, before any government forces us on to .XXX.

All that has to happen is for CCBill and Epoch to refuse to bill for .XXX sites. That makes them worthless overnight.

What say you CCBill? Epoch? Will you help the industry on this one?

FSC...feel free to run with this idea.....

CCbill yeah right....

Just had a buddy tell me last night that he bought a membership to a site. This is a savvy individual 2.95 trial - verified for no hidden cross bills or bullshit and he used a virtual visa that was authorized for that purchase amount only.

The issuing bank called him after an online pharma company was trying to slam his card over and over for extra charges for shit that was totally unrelated.

Aint no bullshit to be called on this one. Only place they could have got that credit card data was from the processor as it was a number assigned for that purchase only.

Can you guess who the processor was?
