Suspected PayPal Hackers Seek Deal To Stay Out Of Prison
Did A Google Earth Mistake Cause A Couple's Brutal Murder?
DLS @ SXSW - PayPal
PayPal had a nice booth at SXSW and was there to promote their API and developer platform, which now allows developers (hint: mobile developers, prayers answered) to enable PayPal's e-commerce solution within their apps. They were also there promoting their new iPhone app, which allows you to manage your PayPal account and send money to merchants or friends. Here's my chat with Francesco Rovetta, Director of PayPal Mobile.

I really wish there was a wide-spread and accepted alternative to Paypal. As a Canadian I really get burned by Paypal's conversion rate which always seems to be far worse than the actual conversion rate...

Paypal, if you believe you can put a fig leaf over your dubious business practices by donating a few cents to Haiti: I'm sorry, it's not working on me.
Stop freezing accounts. Stop answering emails with boilerplates. Charge smaller fees. Either make that farce that buyer protection is into a real, trustworthy insurance, or stop it completely. Take users' security seriously. Stop making your empire as intransparent as you can (no, I don't really feel like sueing a legal entity in Luxemburg.). Make your terms and conditions readable. Become a real bank, instead of that intermediate thingy you currently are.
In short: Become transparent, predictable, reliable.
