Paypal is at it again

Paypal is demanding that Smashwords remove certain content.

I don't know anything about Smashwords except that some people I've interacted with have self-published their work there.

Since Dreamwidth went through this and ended up choosing a payment system other than Paypal, I wonder if the peeps at Smashwords have talked to the people at DW who negotiated that minefield.

Are there any viable alternatives to Paypal?

I am always looking for viable alternatives to Paypal, on which I depend. There are a few small ones, but nothing with remotely the reach or market penetration. That would probably be okay with me--if I could send money to individuals some other way, I could give up the other things I do with Paypal, but I haven't yet seen anything attractive.

If you find something, let me know.
