PayPal: Cannot make a donation to Whonix - link is down?

Support
1

Dear Whonix team

I’m trying to make a donation to Whonix in a regular firefox browser.

My preference is via bank wire but this isn’t possible. So I tried with my creditcard via paypall.

In the box where I select the frequency and amount there is a blue bar on the bottom that says DONATE via paypal. I assume I should click this after selecting the amount and frequency. However this button is NOT working. And it’s not my browser because in Openwrt donating with paypal works just fine.

I hope you can fix this.

It’s down due to server Content Security Policy (CSP) hardening.

Meanwhile can be used:

Onetime only. Reoccurring donations unsupported by paypal.me.

It will be fixed during the next website update.

/Whonix only. Only 1 paypal.me link allowed per PayPal account as far as I know. So there’s no /Kicksecure.

Reoccurring donations: Now possible again. PayPal actually nowadays supports a decent hosted donate button. This will be simple to add to the website because it is only a simple link, no http post action required anymore.

Whonix:

Kicksecure:

(Still says Donate to Whonix but that is unfixable because that is the name of the PayPal account.)
