PayPal Bans Major File-Hosting Services

 PayPal allows any business or consumer with an email address to securely, conveniently and cost-effectively send and receive payments online. However, In recent weeks Paypal cut off many largest file hosting websites from its services like MediaFire, Putlocker and DepositFiles.

Paypal cut off their services because of Growing concern over copyright infringement. The UK-based company had its PayPal account frozen three months ago after it refused to allow the payment provider to snoop on files uploaded by its users.

“They basically wanted access to the backend to monitor all the files being uploaded, and listing all files of users if they wanted, regardless of the privacy setting that the user might have selected,” Putlocker told TorrentFreak.

“This is a complete invasion of privacy on PayPal’s part, as it’s none of their business what files users keep in their account. We have a solid abuse handling policy already, and we don’t feel a 3rd party company has any business snooping on our users,” the company added.
