> The idea is that MC and Visa are themselves at risk of being shut down by the government if they knowingly allow payments for illegal activity.
Operative word being knowingly. Demanding every customer prove every part of their business is legal activity != "not knowingly allow illegal activity."
Also, the notion that MC or Visa would be shut down over this sort of thing is absurd.
