    I’m getting really tired of payment processors deciding what adults should be able to do with their money.

    Same with lazy platforms and advertisers that aren’t even targeting children resulting in dogshit censorship across the internet.

    We’re honestly supposed to believe that with the advanced algorithms, metadata matching systems, and audience targeting systems that these fucks use, that they can’t tell with high certainty whether an account is an adult or a child, and allow the appropriate type of ads through? Especially when many of them require accounts that require you provide that information. Get fucked.

      I’ve just been ignoring all the inane post in lemmy regarding this.

      It’s capitalism working as intended, and none taking Visa&Mastercard{Vanguard accountable.

        I’m honestly surprised that the processor shareholders aren’t demanding they process those transactions to increase profits even more.

          Because the 3-5¢ they get per transactions may not offset the costs of processing what is in some places illegal.

            Maybe they should have a way of determining where someone is from and not process transactions for those regions… Oh wait, that’s a fundamental function of not only what they already do, but also the Steam store itself.

          From Vanguard’s perspective: you’re not slavering yourself harder, so why should they support a proven contraceptive?

          No please, birth more slaves, fuck people in the wild, rape them, don’t even consent. Vanguard needs more expendable slaves!
