HOW PAYPAL ENDORSES GANG RAPE OF WOMEN

Paypal supposedly has "Terms of Service" that bans violent pornography, and won't take money for sales that involve sexual abuse without consent.  But they allow it anyway and take the money.  

An example, one of hundreds on eBay, is this photo: Emma Watson (the teen in the "Harry Potter" movies) being gang-raped. To PAYPAL this is OK. 


Paypal gets paid for "fantasy" images like this: a teenager being assaulted by four men. Yet in most offices, if a man circulated an image like this at the office and said, "This is my fantasy about Emma Watson," he'd be fired. 

PAYPAL needs the sixty cents they make on this image in the "adults only" section of the eBay website? PAYPAL in Nebraska has an office where reports of an image like this are dismissed as   hardly worth the time it takes to send out a form e-mail reply? 

If you find an e-mail address for this secretive company and you ask them TO ENFORCE THEIR TERMS OF SERVICE,  and OBEY FEDERAL LAW, you get a form letter:


This was sent to aup@paypal.com. If you write in again you will get the same form letter. 

Meanwhile 100's of women, famous and not famous, are being pictured raped and abused by EBAY sellers in the "adults only" section of the site. (Pervs know to go to eBay's main page, scroll the category menu and choose "everything else.") This is beyond political satire:





PAYPAL is awfully smug about violating Federal Law, which requires a signed model release of age and consent for pornography. Meanwhile Emma Watson and hundreds of famous and NOT FAMOUS women are being abused with profits going to PAYPAL. Ebay sellers routinely offer their Photoshopped celeb porn (most of it claiming to be real), as well as "ex wife" and "ex girlfriend" photos, never with the caveat that they have permission or CONSENT. 

Unfortunately indifference, like PAYPAL shows, is what victims of sexual abuse often deal with these days, even in rape. The police have mirrored glasses on and the victim stares at her own reflection. An impassive doctor in a bright white room puts the rape victim on a cold metal table and probes and prods, saying little, implying the victim was at fault. 

PAYPAL can't do better than send a form letter response to a wrenching, repulsive image perpetrated against a child-actress? That's PAYPAL? Yes, that's PAYPAL.
