Valve gets pressured by payment processors with a new rule for game devs and various adult games removed
(www.gamingonlinux.com)
Steam may now remove "content that may violate the rules and standards set forth by Steam’s payment processors and related card networks and banks, or internet network providers. In particular, certain kinds of adult only content."
So far there has been a crackdown on incest games.
Recently in the news, payment processors forced Fansly to ban substance use, furry content, hypnosis, and more. So I'm sorry 
and 
gang but I implore you to do some critical thinking and read history. There will sadly have to be a queer/pervert united front.
I guess this is how the US gets morality-laws-with-American-characteristics. Just another aspect of the corporate censorship and surveillance state. There's another post on here about people having to submit photo ID in the UK to use certain sites. Plus the ad-tech computer-fingerprint tracking technology that has existed forever. I completely agree it's going to start being used for way more invasive and damaging kinds of censorship if it isn't already. But I doubt we'd see any article written about Steam removing a game from a sanctioned country unless maybe they're Russian or something like that.
I wonder if Valve has even gotten any complaints for payment processors though, or is this just preemptive or an excuse? And I wonder if this is more of a ruling-class consensus and not just an isolated instance.
