Not the first time they have freezed up a payment processor. As of now money online with stars and ftp is safe, however if this continues to happen speculation is that they will pull out of the US market. The personal feeling of many of the top players is that, this has to happen atleast another 5-10 times in the same year, before they even consider doing so, since the revenue earned simply by US player and there rake far out weighs what they lose everytime this happens.
Remember when this happens, by the time they freeze the accounts they(the poker site) is already working on another form of precessor. Just be thankful that the government has so many issues to settle before they can actually take action.
(i know some peopl like to critize grammer and spelling errors, but considering that I'm typing this from work show some mercy, because the answer that I have given you comes directly from the poker site owners/spokespersons. shout out to NWP and twoplustwo for info.)
