Apparently the people doing this type of pressuring on the credit card companies are anti-furries, TERFs, and other right-wing anti-porn think tanks, with a possible goal to erase all queer or pornographic content off the internet.

how does one “pressure” credit card companies to that extent?

also just because a group claims responsibility doesn’t mean they actually had anything to do with it.
