It was restricted, and Wikileaks can't take donations directly via PayPal anymore. Hardly a problem, since several other organizations take donations to Wikileaks. No funds are confiscated in any country or bank, as far as public information goes anyway. None of the newspapers publishing the leaks in full have gotten their bank accounts frozen either. Their operation is perfectly legal in every country with free speech. This is nothing but a publicity stunt for PayPal, and it would be a better publicity stunt for the Bitcoin community to to the opposite.<br/><br/>-1. I think you are overreacting.</div> text/html
