More than a request, I think it's a deserving clarification. We're getting mob outrage against Valve, Itch.io etc... while it's just Visa/MasterCard/Paypal laughing on everyone back.

Thanks reading my TEDx

Not me but

How do they apply pressure though?

Copy the whole thing:

How do they apply pressure though? (they threaten to sue)

Beside the fact that it wasn't even you, they made a specific answer to that question as if it was authoritative. They were not "just asking questions", either.

You're being needlessly pedantic. If it makes you feel better, I can ask the question again:

How do they apply pressure?

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I answered that above already. Good bye.

You didn't answer anything about why they would care about PR. Is it your position that people would stop using CCs because some entity got noisy about them being used to buy pr0n?
