PayPal is being a shit to our German users and demanding they sign up for a PayPal Account, even if they only want to pay by credit card.

I worked for PayPal.

Under no circumstances should you use PayPal. Ever. We were paid to lie to customer, we evaded taxes and we downright stole your private information and sold it for money. If you fucked up we'd keep your money.

...wait, that's every company. ;_;

It would seem to be appropriate for all the TOR-using Codexers if they could launder bitcoins into the currency of the future: potato.

I doubt that's a PayPal issue, rather likely German legislation. Germans have several (inane) laws and regulations relating to the Internet that no other country has and I expect this is simply PayPal complying with them as they have no other choice if they want to be able to operate in Germany.

The reason is pretty simple: they're the most popular and usually people are too lazy / don't care enough to look for alternatives.

Sucks to be German. All that butthurt. No wonder you guys tried to take over the world.

Third time's the charm! Economic dominance in Europe has made every other Euro country dependent on our money and credit. Now we simply have to assemble a European Army under German rule and we're gonna show y'all once and for all!
