Payment Processors Are Pressuring Major Gaming Vendors to Pull LGBTQ+ and NSFW Titles
Payment Processors Are Pressuring Major Gaming Vendors to Pull LGBTQ+ and NSFW Titles
You're viewing a single thread.
A few days ago there were many here saying the idea of a slippery slope to banning LGBTQ+ games was nonsensical.
Yet, here we are.
It always starts with "Protect the children!!"
Same crowd is who the children need protecting from
If you read the article, it does not say there has been a second wave or something targetting LGTBQ+ games. It is one person saying their comic was SFW and was delisted.
We should definitely fight back regardless, don't get me wrong, but as of yet there has not been LGBTQ+ targetting.
The author of the SFW comic should contact itchio and ask why their game was deindexed, since itch did MASSIVE removal of all "adult" and NSFW content beyond what their payment processors asked, as to evade any issue and then reindex according to them.
Again, we should be alert, and we should monitor their firther actions closely, but it's not time yet to cry wolf with the LGBTQ+ targetting.
Thanks for this.
