well, its VISA that's behind the whole Paypal problems with adult sites, believe it or not. VISA has been on a rampage about adult sites for a while. Rather than lose their VISA processing abilities, Paypal decided to crack down on adult sites. No American third party billing system can accept VISA for adult site payment. (and its starting to creep over to Europe as well) VISA wants you to pay for your own merchant account, which is hard to get and pricey to boot. It has everything to do with money and nothing to do with prudery, at least in Paypal's case.
