I am sad to report that Bitrefill has become a shell of its former self. It used to be a good option for buying prepaid cards and such for BTC, but on my latest exploratory use of it left a very sour taste in my mouth when I was informed that certain cards were "not available for VPN users".

Punishing privacy protection and encouraging commercial/financial surveillance is the mark of the Enemy, and should never be encouraged or rewarded. Fortunately, an alternative exists. CoinGate not only offers the same cards, it doesn't ask any annoying fucking questions and it lets you use GuerrillaMail for checkout (for now, at least). So my friendship with Bitrefill is canceled, CoinGate is my new best friend.
