Comment on Itch.io is delisting NSFW games due to pressure from payment processors

They should do Twitter next. Twitter has nsfw AI role play now and it should be banned by payment processors
Assuming we’re being facetious here, 100% agree.
Hell, if extwitter gets banned, it’d be hilarious because then there would probably be laws changed to ensure only the government can select what gets banned. Though, not so hilarious in the current state of the world.
They list this as one of their main goals, right on their website.
Tbf it should be banned for being ridiculous but not from a morality standpoint from the payment processors, just bc it’s cringe and has nothing to do with that social media format. That being said, Twitter is getting worse and worse

Payment processors should not police what kind of legal transactions people use their services for. No matter how much you dislike the particular product.

As we can see, they already have that kind of control, and what’s worse is that it’s not limited to just one country.
Maybe the OP has a point, and it’ll take them fucking with something else than “just” hobbies to get regulated.

While i agree the notion its not that black and white.
Payment processors are companies. Where you would draw the line when company can and cant decite how they want to manage their product? In the end its their decition.

We already do it for utilities. A financial company should not be deciding what its users are allowed to spend their own money except within the confines of law.
