SubscribeStar news, as they've updated their TOS: https://subscribestar.adult/prohibited_content#content-review-and-pre-screening

To quote someone I just read: "seems more stringent than Patreon itself" (and SubStar was famously an alternative to Patreon, so...now I guess it's nothing but Patreon anymore. Yay.)

Here's a breakdown thread by Ana Valens: https://bsky.app/profile/acvalens.com/post/3mgqrdolvx22y

"These new guidelines stand out as being especially strict; banning the depiction and description of mere sex toys, for example, goes beyond what many other stores had to ban."

3D Asset Marketplace Jinxxy Bans Adult Content

Under payment processor pressure, 3D asset marketplace Jinxxy, known for VRChat and VTubing assets, bans adult content. The restrictions are especially strict here, with bans not only encompassing genitalia and sexual acts. Jinxxy is one in a long line of storefronts affected.

Such a move by #stripe could expand usefulness for people presently unable to use it without increasing costs (like me)... but i don't think that is what they will do if they acquire #PayPal.

I have a real distaste for platforms that use stripe. They leave a lot of the world out.

Very odd 'paywall' for many in the world that don't have the access.

Payment processors are reconsidering their stance on CSAM after the AI model Grok was implicated, while Elon Musk’s lawsuit over the issue has been dismissed.

@mewsleah there are many #PaymentProcessors that don't force #produshness of #christofascists down their clients' throats.

In fact #CreditCards like #AMEX, #VISA & #MasterCard live off #porn / #AdultContent and the moment #Normies can buy, sell and use #Monero more conveniently than hammering in CC & CVV numbers their business is dead.

  • I'd even go so far as to be willing to repeat this under oath before a judge because I worked for a payment processor in the past who did and still does facilitate such payments!
🚀 Oh look, another "world-changing" payment processor that promises to revolutionize finance by doing absolutely nothing new, but it’s open source, so it's obviously the Messiah of #fintech. 🙄 Meanwhile, the rest of us are still trying to figure out what "zero webhooks" even means without a thousand GitHub plugins. 🤦‍♂️

"So where are we supposed to go if we can't trust our platforms to have our backs? [...] I don't know the answer to that, but I think it would be wise if we all took some steps to take back the means of how our work is distributed in some way."
