Patreon Acquires F95

Are we here again?
I need to bring that up on the next meeting with Patreon Trust and Safety team.

Right now, the only law that REALLY matters to VISA and Master Card is American Law, and it's Americans that need to take a stance on this. The only thing the rest of us can take a stance on is VISA and Master Card trying to apply their standards outside of the US, which will do jack and shit tbh.

Well, their banking system don't allow to have drug money transfered by wire. Thus the "new" law in California that allows Marijuana has the effect that companies needed to go to the local tax office to pay their tax on their Marijuana business in cash. This in turn leads that the tax office need more employes and cash counting maschines.

Also from the whole "freedom of spech" debate. Yes, you can say what you want, but in turn you must accept the consequences of that. Thus if I say that Count Morado is a creeping pervert, I must accept what might come after.

Complete sophistry. As if I have freedom of bank robbery because all I must do is “accept the consequences.”

Of course, only your own conscience and your own estimate of profit vs risk is may hinder you. Also as this apply to any other too the law enforcement could kill you as they try to stop you or a accomplice after you success or... You get the general gist of it.
Life is free, you can do what you can do and only death is certained.

I always think of the musical The Music Man when issues like this come up on art. There was a part where they were singing a song about Marian the librarian who there were rumors alluding to an idea that she had slept with the owner of the library and he had left her books because of it. During the song the books by Chaucer, Rebelais, Balzac were mentioned. Imagine if all books that contained lewd content were banned. They don't even have images. It disturbs me at work a bit that so many people's jobs now are to moderate content. This was never the case before around 2015.

Chaucer has been banned in the past.
So has Rabelais and Balzac.

Here's a list of books most challenged (and many banned) in the 1990s in the US:

That's well before your 2015 assertion.

You're aware of the Hays Code dealing with movie content from 1934 to 1968 before the advent of the ratings system (which is a censoring system, in itself)?

I don't think you're aware of how much you're mistaken about history, censorship, and content banning made by both public and private entities.

Heck, a simple Google search will have this as a result:
List of books banned by governments

You're going to see a lot of dates prior to 2015.

EDIT: To add, your own example from "The Music Man" destroys your thesis... the Pick-A-Little ladies were bitching to Harold Hill that Marian allowed books in the library they did not want: “I shouldn’t tell you this, but she advocates dirty books… Chaucer… Rabelais... BALZAC!” Had it not been for Marian's advocacy - those ladies would have had those books (and many others) removed from that library.

They may have been banned, but clearly they're not anymore. Where I live you can buy them. My point is that there's been lots of content in history that contains questionable content. Most of it can be easily gotten and most of the time is available for free or for sale. Even in the case of patreon with the crackdown on such content people are still producing it there.
