Forbes.com says "blocking the money streams to these sites would be a more 'fruitful'" and "censorship-resistent bitcoin appears to solve the problem by providing a decidedly nonpolitical currency."

What's even more surprising is that Forbes.com is quoting Torrentfreak so much...

Torrentfreak: PayPal Demands Invites to Private BitTorrent Trackers

Torrentfreak: PayPal Bans BitTorrent Friendly Hosting Provider PRQ

The bad news: "PayPal is so widely used that donations would drop if forced to rely on lesser-known payment methods" like bitcoin.
