Mossad: “welcome back, operative!”

“The right pickle in the wrong place can… make all the difference in the world, mr. Freeman”.

Lots of sites also block access from known exit nodes. I think almost everything under cloudflare blocks it.

But I feel like my “best” is not nearly good enough. It’s not other people hounding me, it’s myself. I’m my own abuser. I hold myself to standards I wouldn’t demand from anyone else. I don’t even know where I got this from, my parents were slightly fucked but not abusive per se.

Steam and Itch are both victims in this matter, their hands are tied. If the payment processors simply refuse to process any payments unless they comply, there’s no point in trying to put pressure on them. I’m pretty sure they were happy to take people’s money for these games and still would be, if they could so while saving face.

Steam is gonna look mighty empty if every game with violence is removed tho.

My line is these payment processors being judge, jury and executioner about what material they deem valid. So I am fundamentally opposed.

There are a few smaller EU payment processors. I’d love to see them move into the space Visa/Mc leave behind here but I’m not sure they are “big” enough for it.

First they came for the incest/rape games, which most people somewhat agree with (although the principle is still wrong) Next up is all nsfw games. After that, it’ll be mainstream and indie games altogether. This never stops with just one “victory” for these groups.

Saving Ryan’s Privates…

Not limited to the US. It’s an open secret that this happens pretty much everywhere for the simple reason that cops everywhere LOVE low-hanging fruit. Just drive up to residence, make the arrests, tally the notches and play the hero. No investigations or annoying red tape required.

They won’t even let us eat cake. None of those people know their history it seems.
