Though both did this after US government's officials asked them to do so. There haven't been any sentences given regarding this matter as far as I know.

Around here police could be sued for this. Fucking unacceptable. Police doing politics and gives sorta sentences without legal grounds.

It's illegal activity, escorting whether you agree with it or not is illegal in most of the country. Can't use credit cards for illegal activities.

Well when you have FinCard accepted word-wide let us know.

I don't like all VISA-NET policies -- but if it is illegal in the USA: VISA and Mastercard are USA based companies and subject to US Federal laws -- period.

Advocating Bitcoin for purchases associated with unlawful activity only shows a lot of Bitcoin users are intent on evading laws with the digital currency's use. That is one reason why Bitcoin will never be successful :2 cents:

Follow the Silk Road :upsidedow

We're testing this market and experiencing the same issues.

So let me get this right. You can't use Visa or MasterCard to place an ad but you can use Visa and Mastercard to buy a stash of high powered, high precision automatic weapons ?

Ad dangerous and deserving of Sheriff scrutiny but ignore the bloke loaded up and heading to the theatre after going shopping ?

I was commenting more about the actions of US police. And neither the US laws would have required for Visa or MasterCard to do any actions regarding this matter.

But actually the Visa we have in here, is not the same as US Visa. At least when I last time checked. Though there have been quite a lot changes lately. Our Visa uses Visa's trademarks, systems, etc. but is separate company or something like that. And it is a tad different in different European countries.

Visa in Europe


EDIT:

Okay, Visa Europe may again be part of Visa inc.

"7:15 AM EDT May 11th, 2015

Visa Inc. may buy its former unit Visa Europe Ltd. for as much as $20 billion, according to unnamed sources close to the deal, Bloomberg reported Friday (May 8)."

"Visa Europe, which has a licensing agreement with Visa, managed more than 500 million accounts and processed more than 16 billion transactions last year, according to its annual report. It earned 219.8 million euros ($246 million) in 2014, which was up 29 percent from 2013."

Anyways, that confirms that European Visa is not under US laws. It is not "FinCard", but it is European Visa.

backpage is good traffic :thumbsup

You would need a non US credit card and cannot buy an ad in the USA with it. Interesting that I see ads in the UK ...

What? Cannot buy something from US with non-US credit card? I really didn't get the last sentence neither.

Nice bitcoin gonna get used for even more illegal shit making it even less trustworthy and legitimate
