Paypal is now playing harder ball on artists, going after anyone even mentioning commissions.

Artists, send invoices. That way, no one has to say what the money is for on Paypal's paper trail.

Customers, SAY NOTHING about commissions. Just say "thanks" on donos.

Everyone: INCREASE THE CALLS.

You know the drill.

If calling DNC, talk about the actual harm this can do.

If calling GOP, talk about free speech and big tech censoring.

Both ways mention you'll be keeping their vote on this in mind for the primaries.

Michigan lawmakers are proposing a total porn ban

The "Anticorruption of Public Morals Act" H.B 4938 would prohibit the distribution of "real, animated, digitally generated, written, or auditory" depictions of sexual acts.

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!

www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...
e-6695 (Consumer protection) Keywords Censorship Credit cards Internet Pornography E-petition Initiated by Carmen Tam from Waterloo, Ontario Original language of petition: English Petition details Petition to the House of Commons Whereas: Mastercard, Visa, and other payment platforms have been leveraging their power over consumer ability to purchase legal content; In 2021, Mastercard changed its policies to regulate adult entertainment by preventing the use of its payment platform on numerous adult entertainment sites; As of July 2025, video game distribution service Steam now cites rule 15, that “adult only” content is not permitted on the platform if it goes against payment processor’s policies. Steam does not describe what content is defined as “adult only”; As of July 2025, video game distribution website Itch.io has “deindexed” all adult NSFW content from browse and search pages. Users that previously purchased legitimate video games cannot access games that have been removed; and This has set an unsettling precedent of corporate censorship, causing concern in video game development teams, including developers, voice actors, and artists in other creative fields as their livelihoods are in limbo. We, the undersigned, citizens of Canada, call upon the House of Commons to 1. Stop financial discrimination by payment platforms against legal goods and services; 2. Ensure transparency to consumers about content restrictions and the rationale behind them; and 3. Protect creators' rights to make legal adult content and ensure a fair appeals process for any penalized media.

They're actively targeting creators who call in & banning them, making it even more important to call if you're a customer & not a creator

Tell them they shouldn't be dictating how you get to spend the money you put your blood, sweat, and tears into earning

"Hey I read in [news outlet] that your company made Steam stop carrying adult-rated games. Are you taking them out of Playstation and Xbox too? What about R rated movies? Can we just. Not buy them any more? What's going on? Are Explicit albums banned too? Are you policing Spotify? WHY?!"

hey have a script for leaving a message for Stripe.
the number i used Minutes ago so i know it works:

877-887-7815

you will not have to talk to a real person, this number leaves a message. i recommend switching up the exact wording so you don't just leave the same message as me.
Hi, I'm a Stripe customer. I'm calling because I've been seeing a lot of news about you denying service to storefronts that sell adult content and enforcing this crazy list of things that works can't even contain and it's like, stuff that's in Game of Thrones. That seems really over the line to me, because all of this stuff is totally legal to make fiction about. If this is something you're going to enforce a lot of people are going to look for alternatives, and I expect I'll be one of them. I recommend you change your policies before you start losing a lot of business, including mine. I can't support any business that enforces censorship like this.

Please contact your MPs to reverse this decision.

It'll make things a lot worse.

Literally censoring of LGBTQIA+ content while making us all feel less safe with our data online.

If you're from the UK, contact them now.

MAKE YOUR CALLS!!!
WHY? On July 2025, Steam, a popular storefront to purchase games on PC, and itch.io, a storefront that sells games, comics, tools, resources and much more, have recently delisted several NSFW games, after the group Collective Shout published an open letter to payment processors such as Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, and more. As a result of this letter, payment processors have strongarmed Valve and itch.io into enforcing restrictive new TOS policies on what kind of content their platforms can host and sell. Visa, Mastercard, Stripe and Paypal have been censoring free speech and legal business on the internet for TOO LONG. Their most recent targets are Steam and Itch.io, but they have also been pressuring websites like Pixiv, Patreon, Fansly, Onlyfans and MORE for years, applying draconian standards for what kind of adult/pornographic content platiorms and their users can host and sell. If we as consumers and creators want to regain ground on this issue, we have to make our voice heard. HOW? BOMBARD THEM WITH PHONE CALLS Collective Shout, the organization that lobbied to have Steam and Itch.io change their TOS, did so with only around 1000 phone calls. Visa and MC have backed down from pressuring Onlyians to remove adult content entirely due to public backlash. Clogging their phone lines for an extended perlou, over a mont at the absolute least, will almost gudrantee that these compantes will at least have to pay attention to the backlash. this list is not exhaustive. but some contact points for the 4 targets are: 1. VISA: (US + Can): +1 [8001-847-2911 US option selection for operator: 1-1-2 or 1-1-3 2. MASTERCARD: (US): +1 (8001-307-7309 US option selection for operator: 1-1-2-2-2-1 Phone (outside US): 1-636-722-7111 3.

THIS IS A MARATHON, NOT A RACE. If you can, it is also a good idea to try to spread the word to organizations & groups that can either actively combat these huge companies legally, or can spread news, in a manner supportive of this movement, more effectively than your average person examples of organizations: ACLU Canadian Civil Liberties Association local legislators & government representatives examples of spreading the news: local newspapers special interest publications video game streamers
