There's a short interview I did on PCI compliance over at Practical eCommerce. It's about fees that merchant account providers are charging their merchants. Although not part of the interview, these fees are clearly part of the distributive nature of a regulation like PCI. In the end, the liability that the card brands previously held in its entirety is being distributed all the way down to the merchants themselves.

Fees like the $3000 they charge my company for their annual website security audit where someone simply runs HP WebInspect for 10 minutes and prints a report. Their ripoff artists
