Adult content creators are under attack - one way to help

[PaxHadrian17]

Mastercard put into effect a new policy regulating adult content sellers that very negatively impacts adult content creators, including AVN creators.

The ACLU has a petition to gauge interest in challenging this content regulation.

Please consider adding your 'signature' to this petition so that the ACLU takes action against Mastercard.

Background:

Mastercard recently put into effect a new policy regulating adult content sellers that very negatively impacts adult content creators (this change impacts more than just adult content creators but my focus is on the F95 community and protecting the ability of creators to continue to develop existing and new content without having to censor the adult content that is part of their story telling).

We see countless AVNs getting abandoned for a variety of reasons but this change by Mastercard, judging us for the pixels we find entertaining, goes beyond even the latest Patreon crusades.

There is no guarantee that the ACLU will find success, but this is A way to show that there is sufficient interest to meet the minimum threshold for the ACLU to get involved.

If we can't be bothered to try to stand up for the rights of the AVN creators who we enjoy, who will?

Thank you for your consideration.

Kind Regards and Cheers!!

Pax

For just a few of the threads from the last month discussing this.

Also, that ACLU petition has been around for at least 4 or so years. When it hits the "goal" of signers, it automatically raises the "goal" to a higher number.

You got me...

At least I cared enough to take the time to post it, even if I missed the prior posts.

Thanks for your support!

Cheers!!

Effort is what counts, but again, nobody can win against banks, porn games are bigger brand risk to them than porn itself.
I think best way to counter this is simply using crypto, petitioning more platforms to use crypto.

I was thinking along the lines of an entity like PornHub or OnlyFans (I know OF is under scrutiny for being suspected of making $ off RL loli content - I've never used them so don't know) creating a portal for access.

Add in a user id and password for access (not sure if this is enough for the CC companies but the same level of access needed to use a CC with OF or PHub so it 'should' be).

They would need to charge an access fee/have sufficient advertising revenue to cover costs and generate a profit (someone has to pay for the servers to maintain Many TB of data) but if the business model offered enough profit, they would also want to defend the practice.

Sadly, there is no easy solution, and a puritanical belief set is damaging the ability to tell adult stories.

It is not lost on me that if someone actually created the Old Testament Bible in total - as an AVN - there is adult content that would get it banned from Patreon/attacked by bible-thumpers... So hypocritical... but there it is.

Cheers!!

The only solution here is for the platform ( steam/ itch ) to moderate the creator's content and add an age verification process. That's the only way. That's how Onlyfans manage to use Stripe and other payment processors. Their virtual bank account is issued by Wells Fargo, which was accused of shutting sex worker accounts two years ago. From how I see it, as long as the first layer ( the content platform ) has enough barriers or someone willing to take the risk then payment processors and banks are good to go. I also was looking for payment processors for our platform a few months back. None of them were specifically telling me what is allowed. What I learnt was "a relationship thing" with processors that you have to build over time. You need to make them "trust you“ by how you manage your public appearance, statement, and process etc.

To be honest the issue is much bigger than NSFW content, if you've been paying attention. There's a plan in place to corner the internet and take away everyone's anonymity so that they can silence opposition and control the narrative. NSFW is simply the easiest method to achieve this. While there is a reason they're focused on NSFW as well, such as steeply declining birth rates, It's more about controlling the population. Look to the UK, Australia, and Germany to see what the world has in store for us, this is a new beginning and we are nothing more than beast of burden to them.

I kind of forgot about my new kink of people building alternatives to steam, itch.io, and others to serve the struggling adult gaming industry.

Back a month ago there were like four or five people with this idea and jumped right into web development... how are those going now?

Someone give me an update... need to masturbate tonight and this news could probably get me over the edge.
