PayPal has publicly "apologized" and claims to be working with her... she says she hasn't yet heard from their people.

This puts me a lot closer to reviewing my entire financial picture in efforts to remove as much Big Corporation as I can manage.
As it is, I did close my PayPal account last night, which I had opened for the sole purpose of purchasing a single homebrew game for my Atari 7800. And I was already reluctant to venture back into eBay territory. At this point, I can guarantee that I will never visit either site ever again, and will avoid buying from anyone that insists I use PayPal. Not without them voluntarily registering as a financial institution because they hold money (unlikely), and voluntarily donate a year's worth of income (not profit, income, also unlikely).
