[Asterisk-biz] RE: VISA - MC - Fraud

[Kenneth Shaw]

This is what Visa International is. Not Visa USA, which is a separate
entity. Look it up. Realize that the international arms of credit card
companies are actually separate corporations/organizations and are not
owned by their US counterparts. For the most part, what you're
suggesting is already in place.

Realistically, the problem is in international and maritime law, and
there is no governing body. The WTO is trying to change this but the
actual benefit of the WTO or globalization is up for debate.
