  All valid concerns. I’d argue all also manageable with some education, experience, and common sense.

  crypto bullshit

  Boom! Thats what I was going for. Lemmy seems so anti-crypto when it has real use cases like this. Even here stumbling into where it’s useful you call it bullshit, why?

  See reply to another poster - I meant to point out that if governments move to censor sites the payment processors will move in lockstep to the govt in censoring payments.

  I should have been more direct - if a site accepts credit card payments then they are working with a payment processor that will absolutely 100% cooperate with the govt in choking off sites access to revenue. So to answer your question did cc’s stop working on websites - yes! on many that a govt has decided needs to be shut down, for legitimate or illegitimate reasons. Wikileaks donations being a famous example but if a site doesn’t comply with Texas you bet they can snap their fingers and all payment processors will jump from that site.
