Why do you think payment processors are restricting their policy to exclude pornographic content?
-
They're probably not doing it just because, my guess is that it's to appeal to the fasci- I mean- conservative government heading the US right now. And yes, I am aware that they are probably going to restrict more stuff as time goes on if they're unimpeded. I'm just looking for a solid motive
They're being lobbied to do it by religious organizations who have identified them as a weak point in freedom of speech. See, for example, mortality in media, exodus cry

Project 2025. They literally bragged about the shit they wanted to do while claiming they had nothing to do with it.
It baffles me that people are surprised this is happening, but a large majority of the voting population either doesn't care or are ok with this.

Partly it's because of way more chargebacks.
Woman finds a strange entry in the credit card bill, husband insist it must be a scam.
I doubt if charge backs even made a fraction of a difference in this. This is entirely about power, with the republicans enacting their christofaacist project 2025 agenda to try to turn the US into a religious hellhole based on their twisted read of the Bible (which, realistically, is nothing more than a cudgel welded by principle-less opportunists taking advantage of the stupid and religious).

Control. Plan and simple.

Do they specifically mention how banning porn is a step towards attacking queer people?
just do a web search with "project 2025 porn" and marval at it... it is amazing
here is a good write up example https://www.gratefulweb.com/articles/project-2025-war-porn-privacy-and-progress

wrote last edited by [email protected]I'm confused about that explanation because the same is happening outside the US, too, and started before the current US presidency.

It's all in in black and white in Project 2025.
Ban porn > Categorize LGBT as Porn > LGBT is crime > LGBT in prison
Religious zealots and bigots were given the reigns. This is what we get.
Regarding payment processing specifically, they are under direct pressure from religious lobbyists and are folding like a cheap suit.
A certain section of society watched The Handmaid's Tale (they wouldn't read it because books are bad) and thought: "yes please, let's have some of that thank you very much" this is the thin end of the wedge.

Well, project 2025 was released a few years ago, and is not directly related to the current presidential administration. And to add onto that, the fascist right across the world have been reading from the same playbook for a while, so it's perfectly understandable to assume that non-american fascists are using a similar playbook to gain control of their respective countries.

Visa and Mastercard have been pushing against legal but morally questionable stuff for the last 15 or so years to my knowledge.
It will continue regardless of which administration is in power.

Note how this is happening along the government push too...
They are colluding.

Both those claim to be against sex trafficking, I wonder how many of their board members have flown to the Epstein island?

I just assume every conservative politician is a pedophile. They protect and defend them, so they're already as low as they can go.

You're right except the zealots and bigots are the ones being propagandized to support the legislation. The reason for it has always been for expanded prison labor. That's where America's slavery thrives. Don't play into the culture war while corporations and the owning class take everything from us.

Nah, they want this legislation.

Soon porn and masturbation will be crimes.
Punishable by life sentences to slavery.

Trying to see what they can get away with. Can I control other things too? I was allowd to dictate how people spend their money here, so why not there?
