Wonderful racism. You wouldn't be uploading anything to someone anywhere. You would be sending a fragment, of the payment information, into a server, definetly located into the United States. This server, is the same one you'd ping, before accepting a credit card payment. Works this way:
- web: Hi, is this user safe, or has been stealing content before?
- api: checks on db, user is safe, username, address, billing info, profile not recognized.
- web: process the new user.
- web: Hi, the user with this information (data, as much as possible) has stolen.
- api: saves all info in db, and warns every single webmaster, many other websites will have the same profile.
I computer can detect a user among millions of users by its navigation patterns. A navigation patter can clearly proof as well who is stealing the content, and who is watching a movie.
