Valve gets pressured by payment processors with a new rule for game devs and various adult games removed
(www.gamingonlinux.com)
Steam may now remove "content that may violate the rules and standards set forth by Steam’s payment processors and related card networks and banks, or internet network providers. In particular, certain kinds of adult only content."
So far there has been a crackdown on incest games.
Recently in the news, payment processors forced Fansly to ban substance use, furry content, hypnosis, and more. So I'm sorry 
and 
gang but I implore you to do some critical thinking and read history. There will sadly have to be a queer/pervert united front.
This is really not good. Steam is by far the largest pc platform and where most indie games make the majority of their money. The likelihood of indie LGBTQ+ games getting banned over completely benign "sexual content" is huge.
Yeah, I think it's very telling that these payment processors never apply pressure to remove the racist, misogynist, violent shit on sites like Pornhub. There is no genuine moral dimension to this, it's about punishing "freaks" and "weirdos."
They did. Pornhub responded by... becoming a front-end payment processor itself.
Valve could easily just go this route and extend this to be a service for the entire industry, and be almost universally lauded for saving everyone while simultaneously ratcheting their monopoly up a few notches.
Or, they could just do nothing and let the money printer keep flowing indefinitely, so it's just gonna be that.
I could see them making the attempt. They are the company that is bruteforcing Linux into becoming a legitimate consumer operating system
Yeah, same idea with all the laws trying to equate trans people and homosexuality to "child endangerment" or straight up pedophilia: the goal is to set precedent for removing queer content
