I wonder how long this will last. The NSFW industry is insanely huge. If the current payment processors cut it off, that leaves a giant gap in the market just waiting to get filled (😏).

If they hold firm on this, it might just be a rare opportunity for a new (and hopefully better) payment processor to enter the market.

Or maybe just wider crypto adoption, idk.

I have no idea why all of a sudden payment processors care bout anything but money. What happened ?

Collective Shout happened, an australian organisation decided to wage global war on anything NSFW in games (so far), their key talking points are allegedly being feminist and anti-exploitation of women.

i wonder if they asked the women they're saying they're protecting if they want that "protection", or if they're imagining that women just don't make NSFW art

Why would they ask? They know what’s best for everyone. All people. All around the world.

Their (collective shout) open letter to these companies has a headline like "you are profiting from exploitation" basically, but worse. I guess the card networks were thinking about their stock price or something when they made the decision.
