Hmm, well, perhaps you're thinking of a
      different issue. I'm referring to PayPal.
      
      https://my.fsf.org/donate
      
      The text on the page is: "PayPal (not recommended: requires
      nonfree _javascript_)"

My personal dislike of PP has nothing to do with the status of its page code, and everything to do with its corporate ethical code. I don't have money on account there. When buying overseas, I use PP as a routing agent to mask from my bank the destination of my CC charges.

Org will tread its own path on this. My feeling is that there's more at stake than Euros. But, I'm just a user.
