In reply to Rick.

I dont know what data Woo deals with. Does it hold encrypted card information? Does it hold PayPal login information? I presume it properly handles SSL.

No, it doesn't store any of that. That's why I'm not even going to comment on all this. You go on a rampage with your comments here throwing stuff at WooCommerce (or other platforms) that has absolutely zero to do with those platforms. WooCommerce for example works fine with all payment gateways you mention, they all provide payment APIs or external payment gateways where you can get the payments processed without ever storing sensitive data on your own server.

Besides, I don't know why you went on a rampage here about WooCommerce, as this article doesn't have anything to do with WooCommerce. Go read at how WooCommerce really works before you start posting these weird comments here that are a) not well informed and b) completely offtopic.
