You NEED to call your reps and tell them this shit fucking sucks! They literally want to big-brother style waych you at all times, zero privacy, to "protect children"

For-profit age-verification providers are now pushing for "continuous biometric monitoring" — AI scans of your face, your voice, your behavior — while you're online to protect children.

Every session. Every website. Every keystroke. Monitored and recorded.

They're trying real hard to gain mass control over what we're allowed to say and do online, regardless of it being lawful free speech or expression.

Call your reps y'all. It's worked before and can work again. We CAN beat this, but only if we rally together.

Keep calling. This issue can't die.

It starts with delisting games, but the likely goal is to enact a new morality police that can silence marginal groups and anyone who speaks out against the status quo.

The payment processors are feeling the squeeze! Let your voice be heard!

Fatty's Den (MINORS DNI) @fattysden.bsky.social · Aug 9

The recent wave of restrictions of pornography (including kink / fetish stuff) in art, games, videos, etc. by payment processors and puritan groups runs to the political sphere at top. This recent censorship is a part of Project 2025, as it turns out. It's no conspiracy. THEY WANT TO CENSOR US!

A post on Twitter by the Gelbooru account that says:

Currently people are contacting Visa and Mastercard, en-masse, in an effort to get them to explain why they are banning legal content from being transacted through their systems. These arbitrary restrictions caused companies, such as Steam, Itch.io, and others to pull violent and adult video games from their platforms. They continue to remain silent on the reason WHY they enforced the restrictions on the companies. I surmise they are gagged from speaking through likely threat of regulatory pressure.

May I introduce, Russ Vought, a co-writer for Project 2025, Director of the United States Office of Management and Budget, AND Acting Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

https://files.consumerfinance.gov/f/images/cfpb_headshot-russell-vought_DA8Ama7.original.png

This man has already publicly stated his desire to have pornographic content, violent video games, and other types of content "harmful to children", banned from the internet. This claim he makes is not based on unbiased scientific testing.

In a two minute clip posted on YouTube by The Intercept the following transcript, highlighted in yellow, shows his intended starting point (start with children), and then he cuts himself off from explaining the next part of the plan, of violent video games, etc, as that route had failed twice already in the past few decades.

https://theintercept.com/2024/08/16/project-2025-russ-vought-porn-ban/

Now, as his position in the CFPB, he has ultimate authority over payment providers and banks, and he has likely been abusing this power to strong-arm changes in these privately owned businesses regarding content he specifically had shown his distaste and hatred towards previously. All clearly telegraphed before hand, many years ago.

Continuing the tweet by the Gelbooru account:

This was ALL done in the guise of protecting the children. Admittedly, it is a very solid tactic, at the core. But, if you use the mantra of protecting the children, it tends to mean that it's just a ploy, usually to further a specific agenda.

They are a threat against the United States, nay, the entire world. They are a threat against our democracy, a threat against free speech, and a threat against gamers, a threat against media in general.

These are the same people who believe violent video games cause violent things. An entire generation of individuals have been playing Grand Theft Auto, playing Doom, Quake, and other games, but we are not currently, nor will we face a worldwide pandemic of armed car robberies, driving on sidewalks for the fun of it, or people running around with sawed off shotguns killing demons, or raping people, because a video game was made exploring the content.

Those in power have been eroding free speech in the law. Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act (CDA) provides immunity to online platforms from liability for content posted by their users. They are actively attempting to kill this protection to further their goals outlined in Project 2025, by passing liabilities of their userbase onto the operators via financial regulation threats and pressure, thus killing speech directly, while still keeping in the shadows publicly.

"He filmed the crimes and posted monetized rape videos on P*rnhub, earning revenue for him and the site owners."

https://x.com/BillAckman/status/1898747162306937184

This is their attempt to kill section 230 immunity.

You should not be frightened that they MAY come into power, they are ALREADY IN POWER. They are exercising it spectacularly, taking baby steps to erode away your speech, and we've all been asleep at the wheel.

I highly recommend everyone seek out opportunities to petition their govt on this issue. It only takes one or two countries regulating paypros for things to change. And the first domino does not have to be an enormous power. If you can petition your country’s legislative body, please do!!!

Ana Valens | 🔞 | Comms Open @acvalens.net · Sep 6

U.K. residents, could this be your chance to stop paypro censorship in the country? Please sign this petition

petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

Petition
Ban payment processors stopping services based on objections to legal content
Government should legislate that payment processing companies may not place stipulations on use of their services regarding sales of otherwise legal content and, if they do so, must face legal penalties and must remunerate platforms and individuals for lost income until service is restored.

Its monday! Now is the time to call your reps!

And especially take the time to complain about how companies like Paypal are now acting in a retaliatory manner towards CUSTOMERS of legal adult content.

Demand legislative action

Continue calling your representatives about these federal bills. All of these are some flavor of bad-for-the-internet.

additionally, try to emphasize how much you want to see legislation passed to stop paypros from censoring/debanking legal work!

HEY WHAT THE FUCK WHAT DO YOU MEAN PAYPAL'S SHUTTING DOWN ACCOUNTS CONNECTED TO 18+ PATREONS????

Ana Valens | 🔞 | Comms Open @acvalens.net · Aug 27

VTuber Milky: "PayPal recently out of no where terminated my account perm, mostly due to my PATREON that is 18+"

Milky 🌌 🥛
@Miilkywayz
Hello this is Milky and truly this is sudden to make an announcement of but I feel it is my heart to try my best to warn other creators before this happens to you as well.

Paypal recently out of no where terminated my account perm, mostly due to my PATREON that is 18+ I know without a doubt it was for this reason as I sent a transfer and it flagged everything on Paypal and caused my termination once they most likely saw it was an 18+ Patreon account.

As you know, if you don't.. Payment processors are growing more and more against 18+ creators and finding any way to terminate them, the moment you are on their radar. It's game over and you will lose your account.

I never thought this would happen to me, I've been a creator for 5 years and I never had any issues, I'm still shocked and in disbelief but I know without a doubt it was my Patreon.

What does this mean for me? For now please do not donate to me as I have no valid working Paypal. I have made the choice of no longer creating 18+ content on my Patreon as I am left with no other choice. I DO NOT Intend to fight these Payment Processors, It's a fight no one can win because we are all at their mercy.

Please keep in mind if you really think things like "It's fine, It's not going to happen to me." Please re-think this because this is exactly what I thought as well until it happened to me. It's only a matter of time, protect yourself by all means please don't be naive like I was.
