"I asked ChatGPT..."

Look, if I wanted garbage from the garbage dispenser, I can press the "dispense garbage" button myself.

(Actually, I like when people say this, because it means I can immediately disregard everything that follows it.)

Made it even easier to see if you have this and access it if you do! Copy this into either your web browser or File Explorer address bar. It will take you right to that screenshot (or if it takes you to the main Settings window, you don't have that screen yet.)

ms-settings:privacy-systemaimodels
BY THE WAY

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.

There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

TURN IT OFF.

Reminder to not let corporations devour our community, please. They will take our culture and sell it back to us as slop, infiltrate our spaces and sanitise them. It’s already happening. Tell them to fuck off by not giving them money, while we have the chance! What we have is so important!

The official Canadian Petition to reign in payment processor censorship has stalled out just under 10k signatures.

This is a reminder for Canadians, this is an OFFICIAL petition that will be responded to. Show your support in protecting our free speech!

If you've been easing up on pressuring these freaks or haven't cared yet because you're not a visual novel dev getting erased from itch,

Please observe how ridiculous "fantasy (cat ears, fairies, ETC)" is like putting "etc" after fantasy is WILD
Woke up to quite the update on this. I had been in contact with Payment Cloud about getting their service and they waited until now to hit me with the image below. Again, stringing me along instead of being upfront. They had seen my website multiple times before this.

Australians, spread this petition far and wide. Demands Parliament “open anti-trust investigations and penalize the unregulated monopoly of a key part of everyday infrastructure,” as “payment processors are not there to regulate what legal content people consume.”

Canadians! There is a petition to sign to protest Mastercard and Visa's control over the purchase of legal adult content. This is specifically about the Steam & itchio situation, but language protects adult creators.

A change.org petition won't do much, but email/call/visit your reps and people responsible and make it heard that you still don't want this. (This will be the third time they've tried, time to make it the third time they fail.)
It was only a matter of time, but Canada has joined the censorship bandwagon with Bill S-209.

Sign the petition, call your MPs, raise hell.

So when you guys do you daily calls today you should ask mastercard what illegal adult content they found on these content creation platforms. Tell them to make names. When they give you the runaround say "but what have you found that's illegal".

They won't because there was never an investigation
This is a pathetic statement and I’m begging every journalist to rip it to shreds

It’s time for our own collective shout. Who are you calling?

Remember: Stress you’re a repeat caller on this issue and that you heard about this controversy on the news. With Visa, ask for a supervisor once you hit a dead end. Calls should always last longer than 30 seconds

The point of calling credit card companies isn't to make John Visa have moment of introspection and go "aw shucks I was wrong!" it's to grind business to a halt for such an extended period of time that all the higher ups who are real people with names and addresses decide that this isn't worth it

I made a quick and dirty anti-censorship cheat sheet to help onboard people and direct their energy in a productive direction. This isnt as comprehensive as various websites being shared around, but it should be easy to share and save.

Save the png and repost as widely as you can

I know we're upset about itch, but they're not the only ones

Payment processors harassed companies bc of a 1,000 email hate campaign

But we can EASILY top 1,000!

I prewrote an email + got the contact info - you just have to send!

i compiled a bunch of forms and petitions as well as phone numbers and e-mails from most payment processors you can use to contact them and file a complaint regarding their decisions to strong-arm steam and itchio. remember to be cordial when contacting people.

DON'T STOP CALLING.

email them if you want, sure, but the fact that they are requesting people to *email them instead* (presumably because emails are much easier to ignore) means that the calls are WORKING, i.e. becoming a massive nuisance and interrupting workflow.

once again, DON'T STOP CALLING.

Maybe we could find out.

Mastercard (US): 1-800-627-8372
Mastercard (Int.): +1-636-722-7111
Visa (US + Can): 1 800 847 2911
Visa (AUS): 1 800 125 440
PayPal: +44-0203-901-7000
Collective Shout, the group that took credit for bullying Mastercard into recently censoring more platforms, stated that apparently it took them ~1000 phonecalls to convince them to give them what they wanted?

We got like way more people than that don't we?
ok then. one angle of attack then needs to be actively bombarding Visa and Mastercard's phone numbers and emails.

are customer support phone numbers/emails the best avenue to start with or is there a better option?
