    Why do they care? They’re in the debt game, and they get 2% of like half of all purchases too

    They won capitalism, they’ve stacked the barriers to entry up high and taken economy activity hostage.

    Now a group is pressuring them to reach further with that power… Why not normalize overreaching when they’re being invited to? They’re probably giggling at the opportunity, if it goes badly they can reverse course and blame collective shout

    Hell, if this keeps happening they might as well open up a protection racket

      Why do they care?

      Chargebacks, when mom finds a weird purchase on her statements, that little anthony swears he has no idea how it got there

        Yeah that’s exactly why porn sites fall into the high risk category. Chargebacks happen more at those sites. And thus these sites have to pay a higher transaction fee. So either itch pays a higher fee or remove porn.

      How else would it go?

      They got to this position by constantly grabbing reaching }pushing exploiting. Are they just supposed to stop when it makes you uncomfortable? When they reach the limits of the paradigm if power they were born into? Where’s the stop line, and why shoukd a corporation, something that exists to avoid responsibility and oush boundaries of exploitation, give a shit?

      Why wouldn’t they look at the nature of this thing they exist to seek, to distill the concept into pure control, and look for more of that, beyond mere money?
