I wonder if it has anything to do with this... :) I have no idea how they'll actually implement a policy that blocks "transactions that it believes are intended for the site", either it will be extremely lax or punitive.


In an interview with CNBC on Friday, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange said his organization has plans to soon release information about banks, and he told Forbes magazine last month that the data would show "unethical practices."

See this is what Aaron Russo told us his Rockefeller friend told him they wanted to do. Insert everyone with a chip that would carry all our bank accounts and money so that if they don't like us they can just turn it off and you are basically broke and homeless.

They don't like wikileaks, Boom! they shut down their funds.

Oh, well. There are probably other banks out there who will accept wikileaks. Corporate banks are whores and/or fascist piggies anyway.

Bank of America stops handling WikiLeaks payments....

-> angry intarnets stop handling Bank of America data packets

If BOA is trying to profit, they are doing it wrong.
