This is blackmail in my opinion and i would like pine64 to know that its their fault this happened to me.
Dont use paypal for your shop because your members are privacy orientated people!
even i have to start re-considering next purchase if paypal is the only option. paypal's biggest nightmare is not necessarily privacy, i have read enough horror stories, that company is not trustworthy. although paypal is usually bigger nightmare for merchants.
Yes in my opinion thats possibly also against privacy laws in the EU, I contacted the governmental watchdog on privacy about it, I hope they do something about the shady practices of paypal.
And yes i also heard merchants on paypal get treated even worse, so terrible.
Edit: they now say they will save my information for atleast ten years, to comply with some laws they say, yet in my opinion they dont comply with privacy laws.
