Why ? Because they finally decided to take seriously the security of their ?Won't be surprised if they get hacked tomorrow.
And where exactly do you get this "0" exactly ? They've outsourced their security to a specialized company, like they already have for the identity verification (now outsources to Jumio) few weeks ago. And it's a positive move, both for the creators, that will benefit from a better security, and for Patreon, that reduced his costs.Exactly, everyone knows 0 beats 5.
. And now a number of big streamers are exposing them for accounts that are full of half naked children in provocative outright pedo heaven content.
Patreon has way bigger problems these days ... this forum is one of many mirrors of what is a broken platform that supports child pornography and funny enough communism. All those games with girls and boys that are obviously under aged ... the assets used are sculpted to be children but "ohhh noooo they are 18 years old in this game"
You know that Patreon ban this since now near to 5 years, right ? Along side with effective pornography (photography/movies of real persons), prostitution and few other topics.
I really wonder what "funny enough communism" can be. Can we have an example please ?
Exposing peoples who break Patreon's rules is a good thing.
You are aware that if this forum supports child pornography like you claim that stills makes you liable regardless of your stance on it.Patreon has way bigger problems these days ... this forum is one of many mirrors of what is a broken platform that supports child pornography and funny enough communism.

100% this. A lot of devs are "How long until our identities are exposed by in breach?" without realizing that a lot this outsourcing is going to far more competent groups/companies that, as you said, specialize in this stuff. Then you start hearing the what if's about people losing their jobs or getting arrested in the unlikely event that a hack/breach did happen. If they had something to lose/were putting their life at risk, then why would you put yourself in harm's way? It's like walking in the middle of the street at night and getting angry when the car hits you.
From what I've heard, it's more Patreon's Department of Internet Crimes and General Identity Theft absorbing the security team's duties and outsourcing everything else than any kind of general incompetency. They were more or less a redundant team.
You're muddying the waters a bit, but thanks for the heads up.

I'll bet you are skilled enough to find all by yourself some old threads about the topic around August 2020 (unless they eventually got nuked). I'm not going to necro
He "technically" won as they were forced to go to arbitration, but the only real winners were the lawyers paid for the case.
That's true. The thing is that I can not find any single piece of news about how that arbitration eventually went, what kind of agreement they reached (if any), or most importantly, how many people actually started an arbitration process after that successful lawsuit. Because, according to the 'qualified' and 'totally balanced' voices we heard back then, that massive arbitration process was going to be Patreon's financial doomsday, as they would need to pay some fees for every single case; however, no one seems interested in telling what actually happened in the end. Google only shows the potential consequences after that first judge's decision in August 2020, but then nobody did a proper follow-up on the case. This I find strange, considering how many people were totally convinced it was going to mean the end for evil Patreon.
I'm sure the only person in this thread who suggested anything even vaguely like "the end of Patreon's vile regime" was the guy who was obviously just trying to get a rise out of people. But I think it's obvious that Patreon is gearing up for major changes, very not-good changes.
Now please explain how getting rid of a few members of the staff and outsourcing those roles to bigger and more experienced companies means a risk for Patreon's users. And also enlighten me about what those 'very not-good changes' may be.
The whole thing was one salty guy after being banned trying to get tens or hundreds of thousands of people to spend a couple of hundred bucks each on a bogus lawsuit in hopes of sinking Patreon in lawyering costs and that no judge or Patreon would notice the malicious brigading and reject them all in a single act.
