🧵🧵🧵This is my attempt to map Visa and Mastercard Censorship. This is in regards to @CollectiveShout taking ownership of pushing them, but this timeline shows activity back to 2016 for @visa and @mastercard This thread will break down segments, and provide close ups.…
For all its faults, the US is still the best country. Let’s keep it that way.
UK Online Safety Act takes effect today. Users must verify identity with a third-party and scan their face to access adult content online. Proposed screen time limits require age verification for video games exceeding two hours. - Non-compliance fines up to £18M or 10%…
“Gamers’ moral conduct hasn’t kept up with the times,” Japanese analyst suggests as Monster Hunter Wilds criticism escalates into death threats and personal attacks
They have become a Puritan Payment Processor. They might as well deem everything problematic except the colors Black and White.
A complete list of content Visa/Mastercard considers problematic. They may target any game containing this content.
🧵OMFG itch.io posted an update confirming adult content has been deindexed and Feminist Karen organization Collective Shout's involvement
BREAKING: Collective Shout: Itch io BANS ALL Adult Games, Japanese Government FIGHTS BACK! WATCH: youtu.be/8JoKq2Pj57Y
Correct. They did this in Japan for manga and web sites, and they’ve done it before in other areas. This is just their next step and pushing Collective Shout out in front is just brand cover.
anyone surprised by this move by payment processors hasn't been paying attention.
DO NOT STOP!! That they're hiding means they're scared and they know they are in the wrong. Don't stop calling them out for their extremist and authoritarian actions hiding behind the cudgel of religion! Keep shouting them down from the rooftops and, more importantly, contact…
Collective shout has gone private after backlash
Savvy has reached Japan! Japan’s push against payment processor overreach is a vey good way to get some change.
I have received a lot of information from overseas, including Savvy-san @MadamSavvy . In addition to the Australian group "CollectiveShout," which has been pressuring Steam to regulate expression, the American group "NCOSE" (National Center on Sexual Exploitation), which has been…
x.com/Pirat_Nation/s… Its not going to be "violent video games" Its going to be Hatespeech. Missinformation. Ai Safety.
Collective Shout is also targeting X, urging Elon Musk to ban all p*rn from the platform.
We got their attention, everyone! Visa and Mastercard should be afraid, now.
This. Don't think this is just about gooning or porn. I hope you don't like guns in videogames because payment processors have a dim view of those kinds of activities. Visa and Mastercard are only TOO happy top push Collective Shout to the front and say "see, see that's the…
“Did we beat the emperor?” “Deku that was a solar auxillia”
We all know who would win this
All started with this game, and they won’t stop there. Payment processors now control our entertainment; don’t support this censorship.

So not only did they go after steam, they're going after itchio as well.
Itchio has completely cut all association with NSFW games. They're still there, but you can’t find them by tag or even by name only through collections. This has hurt development in a way I can't even describe, so please support me on Patreon. The link is in the comments ;c
This is evil. Performative good to set up a hotline, and pure evil to never answer the phone. World deserves better. So may people just pretending to be good, to virtue signal.
HOLY SHLIT. The Biden administration set up a hotline for unaccompanied migrant children to report safety issues with sponsors. 65,000 calls went UNANSWERED. Only ONE person was reportedly assigned to take the calls.
