So - what about Upwork, Freelancer, Fiverr, Guru and a dozen of other freelance job services that offer the "Writing / Research" category? I've just checked and they all allow Paypal payments. It would mean they would police all transactions? If not they will drop these categories? One way or another, if a ban is really imposed, I'm going to make sure that these big boys don't allow Paypal payments either by contacting proper authorities.
