I don't mean to be alarmist, but I just received the following from Paypal:
We have recently reviewed your PayPal account activity and determined that
you are in violation of PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy by accepting
donations for music downloads.
As a result, your account has been limited temporarily.
To help us resolve this, you will need to:
- Remove PayPal as a payment option, as well as all references to PayPal,
including the PayPal logo and/or shopping cart.
- Submit the online Acceptable Use Policy affidavit.
The irony of this being that PayPal is an acceptable method of payment for hosting files on ADrive.com, which is where I store all of the Bodega's products.
Speaking of which, my ADrive account is currently "in maintenance mode," and if you've tried grabbing anything, your efforts have been thwarted. I can't log in, myself. I don't know for certain just yet, but there's a good chance that account is being revoked--or, perhaps I'm just being paranoid, having had my Divshare account revoked early last year.
I'll let you know, of course, what happens, once I know for sure what *has* happened.
Your radio posse's got your back, Gary.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Doug!

ReplyDeleteI'm going to be furious if this joint is dead.
ReplyDeleteThe Bodega will never completely close, Dolmance; though, it's beginning to look like my ADrive account might actually be shut down.
ReplyDeleteI'll give it another couple of days or so and then, if it's still gone, I'll find a new host. Anyone have thoughts on a good one?
Aaaand ... we're back!
