5 Alternatives to PayPal as Anonymous organises Boycott #OpPayPal

Anonymous have turned to legal means to exert pressures on the websites and webservices that rouse their ire and have organised an online boycott of PayPal.

So far they claim 20,000 accounts have been deleted. It's retaliation for PayPal withdrawing the account of WikiLeaks back in 2010. Back then, they hit them with a DDoS attack, pointing out that PayPal are willing to host an account for the KuKluxKlan.

This time the Anons just want you to delete your account, and they're using their vast Twitter presence to get a movement going. Ideally using the form above. See their manifesto for #OpPayPal here. My problem is that I agree with Anonymous, but that PayPal is so damn convenient.

But if you're looking for an alternative to PayPal check out these five below, though none - yet - match PayPal for widespread presence on the internet and technical reliability. So be cautious.

1. Google CheckOut - okay, so we understand you don't want to give more of your details to Google, but this online payment system is backed by the biggest name on the web. And they do pay attention to security. They describe it as: "a faster, safer, and more convenient way to shop online"
checkout.google.com/

2. PopMoney
"Popmoney doesn't let you send money through its site at all - you can use it to send money only if your bank supports the service. For payments from someone who wants to use that service through their bank, you set up a Popmoney account." [pcadvisor]

3. Amazon Payments
With another big company backing this one, Amazon Payments lets you use your stored Amazon details for shipping and payment across other sites on the web..

4. MoneyBookers 
A UK company that lets you send and receive money and attach a credit card to your account. Reviews of it have so far been positive.

5. Bitcoin - for those who want to get out of the system completely (and avoid paying tax) bitcoins is the currency of choice for digital free-thinkers. Trade in your £s, $s or Euros for bitcoins and then trade and buy stuff in the currency. Not many places accept them yet, but look out for it. 
Risks include sudden fluctuations in value.

Guess who came for breakfast, readers!

PayUpNow has new boycott, corporate tax info .. RAH!!

Pay Up Now is an online effort by US Uncut Chicago members to boycott corporations that pay little or no federal income tax.

Every effort has been made to provide truthful, documented information. Inaccuracies can be reported to contact@PayUpNow@gmail.com.  Use that email address to make suggestions or offer help.  Great going, Uncutters!  Magnificient work!!

Corporate Tax Compliance Rankings Summary

PayUpNow.org is evaluating the 10-Ks (financial summaries submitted by corporations to the SEC) and other documents to determine the tax avoidance levels of Fortune 500 companies, especially those familiar to American consumers. One of our objectives is to make recommendations to shoppers about purchase options that favor tax-responsible corporations. 

Evaluating 10-Ks is not an easy task. Variations , amendments, and financial jargon abound amidst the everpresent hint of accounting legerdemain. With due care we took revenues and pre-tax incomes for five years, and chose current federal tax payments to the exclusion of deferred and foreign and state taxes over the same period. We organized the results by industry in order to identify relative tax avoiders in specific consumer areas. 

Results in these industries stood out: 

-- Beverage: Coca Cola paid a much smaller percentage (6.5%) than Pepsi (13.6%). Both were significantly below the maximum statutory rate of 35%.

-- Computers: Hewlett-Packard (2.9%) and IBM (3.3%) both paid much less than the industry average of about 20%.

-- Finance: Citigroup, with revenues of almost $400 billion, claimed an overall 5-year loss and received a $5 billion refund. PNC and Wells Fargo both paid about 9%, much less than the other major banks.

-- Telecommunications: Verizon (8.8%) paid a much smaller percentage than AT&T (22.1%). The little guy, US Cellular, paid the most (almost 35%). 

In other industries, one or two companies stood out, above or below the pack: 

-- Cable TV: Dish Network (14.5%) and DirecTV (16.6%) paid less than Comcast (22.5%).

-- Petroleum: Exxon (3.6%) and Chevron (5.6%) paid much less than Marathon (12%), and much less than Phillips (17.1%).

-- In fast food, KFC/PizzaHut/TacoBell paid the least at 10%, a little worse than McDonalds at 14%. Burger King (19%) was near the middle. Starbucks paid 33%.

-- In processed food, Heinz (5.1%) paid the least, General Mills the most (25.7).

-- For office supplies, Office Max and Office Depot both lost money. Staples was profitable and paid a 25% tax.

-- For insurance, Geico (22.2%) and Allstate (26%) paid mid-level taxes, while Progressive paid 35%.

Interestingly, tech firms and retail stores were closely grouped in federal tax payment percentages, as if adapting to similar accounting protocols. Amazon, Intel, Cisco, Dell, Microsoft, and Google were all between 19-25%, with Apple falling a little farther from the tree at 16.3%. Wal-Mart, Costco, Target, JC Penney, Best Buy, and Kohl's were all between 24-32%.

Work continues on PayUpNow.org investigations, as new data is weighed, and as feedback helps to eliminate errors and discrepancies. We will also be reviewing statistics on executive compensation and job outsourcing.

Our ultimate goal is to realize product boycotts of the worst offenders. Hitting them in their 10-Ks will remind tax dodgers that their use of American research and infrastructure and transportation and security should be paid for through their taxes.
