More than a request, I think it’s a deserving clarification. We’re getting mob outrage against Valve, Itch.io etc… while it’s just Visa/MasterCard/Paypal laughing on everyone back.

Thanks reading my TEDx

Bro lawyer is just a hired gun, they will do whatever guy paying says. They have no agency.

Executives, BoD and shareholders with controlling stakes make these calls.

Avoid using credit cards as much as possible, deny the parasite profit and network effects.

That was my point, that pressure is always external and they are not making moral decisions.

Executives, BoD and shareholders with controlling stakes make these calls.

Yeah with the external driver of the bottom line, no one is making these ‘calls’ for any sort of purpose other than the profit driver.

Avoid using credit cards as much as possible

Sure, and my paper straws are saving the environment too, right? Individual action changes nothing, changes in law/enforcement is the only proven path to change.

You can do individual action yourself today and right now. It doesn’t hurt shilling online for systematic change. This trope is getting tiring. God forbid a pleb does a thing

Sure you can, you can do whatever you want. My point is it will have zero effect on anything.

Actually every dollar spent away from credit card proxessors denies them 3 cents of revenue and something like .75% in profit per dollar spent

But you do you, keep consuming how daddy told you to do it. Never adjust your behaviour to save money ✊
