Consumers are revolting against payment processors who seek to ban adult-themed Steam games, movies, and art. A Change.org petition aimed at Visa and Mastercard is rapidly gaining support. Its organizers also wish to limit the power of activist groups that influence these companies.
We consumer activists don’t want to have choice taken away by a comparatively small group who seems to be misrepresenting the issue and dictating the choices of consumers. The activism itself is not the problem.
Thats fair. I mostly agree but I dont have any good arguments to defend porn games themselves. Seems to depend on whether someone views porn positively or not.
For context, I’ve never played a porn game nor do I have any interest in doing so. As others have said, it sets a very dangerous precedent for censorship via payment processors.
