CENSORSHIP!!! The 1940s Moralists Are Back!

We used to have the Hays Office controlling every little bit of immorality out of our movies. Now, Mastercard and Visa are secretly policing indie game creators, forcing Valve's Steam into a new editorial role and pushing through vague 'adult content' bans—NOT always applied to NSFW material!

In particular, anime titles, indie developers, and visual novels are being affected.

Feminists and anti-porn advocates have bullied and astroturfed Valve and itch.io into these new terms, using Mastercard and Visa as their muscle. This isn't just moralizing; it threatens creative freedom and hurts small studios and independent developers.

After Valve and Steam, credit card companies spurred by anti-porn group sink their teeth into Itch https://www.gamesradar.com/games/itch-follows-steam-in-conceding-to-scrutiny-from-our-payment-processors-with-a-move-that-affects-thousands-of-nsfw-games/
